It's time to actually set up our tank. We washed our gravel and the tank with water and put it in the tank. We then filled it up halfway with water. The next day we put in a few plastic plants and a rock with a hole in it so when we get minnows for our turtle to chase, they have a place to hide so they can "play hide-and-seek". After that we tested the ammonia and nitrate levels in our tank. The nitrate was fine but the ammonia was pretty high so we added some bacteria in the water to bring it down. We also added some Aqua Clear to the water to make it clearer.
