OH NO! what do i do?!

ok so i have my 5g fish tank its got like 9 stems of plants in there gravel and its got a biofilter etc. i declorinate the later with biosafe and added some bio-coat. i added 2 black skirt tetras cuz the LPS told me it would help cycle it. is tihs gonna kill my poor fish? what do i do? they seem ok they were eating the worms i dropped in there. do i start testing the water for nitrite and ammonia now? its been a day since i added them. i changed 10% of the water today. what else can i do? do the plants help?

 

No I dont think it will kill the fishys.If you keep a close watch on them it will help.Yes yuo should start testing because then youll know if the fish will live.
You can add gravel from an already started fishtank or you can get a chemical containing the bactiria needed to start a fishtank.The plants are actualy not a good thing because they feed off the bacteria you are trying to get in there.


Hope it helps!

TA TA!
