4 Month Cycle Breakdown

TheKingInYellow · Jul 25, 2019

Hello @Bulk Reef Supply !

I am following the BRS/WWC hybrid series with my new build but I'm wondering if there has ever been a more concise guide to the 4 month cycle plan. I know there is always some variation in each build but it would really helpful to see the steps written down with a rough 'best estimate' guideline, for instance when the CuC goes in, what fish you added first, etc...

I'm just trying to sort out some things like do you add all non-tang fish first since the Tang(s) will likely be the most aggressive fish and usually go in last. When are they added in comparison to when the lights go on.

I've watched the specific video on the cycle at least twice but I guess I'm still not all the way clear on it.

Thanks!

Have you started your cycle yet? If so what size tank and params, rock, sand?

Rock is in a closed tub with a powerhead, heater and air pump. Raw shrimp added three weeks ago along with two doses of Prodibio two weeks apart.

edit: I meant to add that this isn't my first reef and I've cycled tanks in the past but I'm trying to implement the more holistic and measured approach that BRS put out as it seems to make a lot of sense.
