Ok so im relatively new to the hobby. I have set up a 36l nano tank with some live rock. I know ussually the die off on the rock is enough to start the cycle. Problem is 1. There doesnt seem to be alot of life on the rock 2. The rock was even out of the water 20min. So im leaning towards the cocktail shrimp method as a ammonia source. Question is: MUST it be shrimp or can i use any piece of meat as ammonia source. Reason for question is i live in a rural area and the drive is about 1hr to nearest shop. Far way to go for 1 shrimp lol. I will if i havr to just checking if normal meat might work
