    Can I double cycle?

    Starting on a new 75 gallon tank. I have two others with extra live rock in them. I also have an order in for Tampa Bay Saltwater’s the package. Should I cycle my current 10 pounds of sand and 25 pounds of live rock in the system until the live rock and sand comes in? Thanks
