One more little piece of info to add, i had also dropped a piece of frozen shrimp in at the begining to start the cycle, after it was in there for a week and now ammonia spike i took it out, figured what i had purchased was correct and already had the necessary bacteria to consome the ammonia, confirmed a week later when i added 6 snails, 2 hermits, a fire shrimp, 1 coral beauty and 1 spotted dotty. Again never got a reading from ammonia.nice follow up that's so cool. someone will use that same visual cue system and be sure of theirs now
Thanks for sharing your personal advice. The information that you provided is what I had been seeking.IMO again depending on what your 'live rock is' - and especially if you add a bacteria supplement such as Fritz 900 - you shoudl be safe to add crabs, snails after 2 weeks. I would not add corals for a longer period. I would get some fish in and thriving first (start small and build your fish population). IME - snails and crabs, hermits, etc - can survive in harsh conditions as compared to corals and fish.
