I'm in the process of setting up my first saltwater tank. Years ago, when I set up my first freshwater tank, I cycled it using regular household ammonia and nothing else. For this tank, I picked up some Dr Tim's One and Only and started the (fishless) cycle with that and the ammonia I already had instead of buying the Dr Tims Ammonium Chloride. I assumed (incorrectly) that Dr Tim's Ammonium Chloride was being sold as a convenience to the end user (just grab a bottle of each) and because it's difficult to find the correct household ammonia. I had to go to several stores to find it when I set up my previous tank.
In any case, I realized today they're not the same.
So, my question is, am I okay to use Dr Tim's One and Only with ammonia? I'm thinking I should be fine, but I'm not having a lot of luck finding a good answer on this one.
