got ethical husbandry?

Rostatos Reefer 450 and Reefer 170

Started the transfer. Just one light for now and moved all my small stuff to make moving the bigger rocks tomorrow easier.

Its dangerous subject to give advices...but..do not you think instead of adding new bacterial strain, it's better feed the existing bacteria?
Again this is dangerous so I cannot guarantee, but, I would rather dose bacterial food(some carbon) to support existing bacteria instead of adding new strain that might compete and prolong the transition settling phase..
Food for thoughts..
 
I do t have a good carbon source that I trust so I’ll probably just let it all be. There was a ton of rock in the old tank.

I really think it’ll be ok. But I’ve been wrong before.
