So my Reefer 170 is ready to roll and it's time to start cycling it.
I've had a YWG and Firefish in QT for 6 weeks so they're ready to go in.
I was going to cycle it using Dr. Tim's and Ammonium Chloride. BUT, I kinda want to put the fish in so I can use the QT for other fish.
My concern is:
If I run a Dr. Tim's + fish cycle am I going to get adequate long term nitrifying bacteria growth.
Or, could I add a small amount of Ammonium Chloride to the tank along with the fish to spur bacterial growth?
Fish + Dr. Tim's + Ammonium Chloride = Dumb Idea or Workable Idea??
