Dr Tim’s is great stuff. I used it when setting up my tank but I have some live rock as well.

Yes, Dr. Tim's One and Only is a trusted product to add beneficial, nitrifying bacteria to your system, and what I prefer if doing a fish-less cycle. Other products that are similar and popular include Fritz TurboStart and Microbacter Start.

In addition to a bottle of bacteria, you'll need a source of ammonia and a test kit to measure ammonia. Popular sources of ammonia include Dr. Tim's Ammonium Chloride, ammonium carbonate (baking ammonia, found at grocery stores), adding fish food, or a piece of shrimp from the seafood market.

Here's some more information on nitrogen cycling your new tank:

That’s how I started my tank! I followed the guide that was post on Dr. Tim’s website and it was very easy to get my tank cycled with this stuff!
