heyandrea_ Posted December 13, 2008 Report Share Posted December 13, 2008 I was given a bristlenose catfish over a year ago, it has been living happily with my goldfish in a cold aquarium and has survived the cold winter that we've had, which i am amazed. Anyway, ive just set up a tropical aquarium and was wondering if it would survive a cycling tank? Or am I better off leaving it with the goldfish until the new tank is cycled? Cheers!

flatfish Posted December 13, 2008 Report Share Posted December 13, 2008 personally I would leave it until the tank has cycled. Its done well up until now but I wouldn't push it. You might be best to cycle the tropical tank at a temperature closer to your coldwater tank then once cycled introduce your bristlensoe and slowly increase the temperature over a few days to tropical temperatures.
