Peeing in tank to speed up cycle?
Hey,
Ok, so I heard about certain people (who shall remain nameless ) who urinated in their tank to get the cycle going and I have to say I'm intrigued by this. Is this true? Are there any detrimental effects? Justin |

I've deleted my last few attempts to reply to this post.
So I'll try and be nice and here is the highly edited version...you find that intriguing, you are kidding right? Dave |

Do a search for "fishless cycle".
They were simply adding ammonia to kick start the tank, and for $1.98 at any grocery store you can do the same without urinating in your tank. |

Actually no. I was really wondering if this is an effective way of speeding up the cycle process. But I understand how this must seem ridiculous.

First time I heard about it, I thought it was completely crazy. Now that I know the science behind it, it's not COMPLETELY crazy, just pretty darn inefficient.

Really inefficient if you're female LOL
No way would I ever do this, I'd never want to put my hands in the tank again. Nor would I feel right about it! Poor livestock!

That is one of the most stupid Ideas I have ever heard of To take a **** in your tank and think it will cycle it quickly, who the heck took the first trial on that idea.
Anyone have a link to this *%^#*
