Hi R2R,
I have a question regarding the cycle of my new Fluval Flex 32.5 g.
I was started up 10 days ago with a mix of newly mixed RODI water and water from my LFS reef tank.
in the tank I have aragonite and and Reef ceramics (dead) which I used in my old tank.
Furthermore, I have a pounds of live rock to seed the system.
My question is: I have seen NO diatoms this far or anything that could tell they a cycle is taking place. Is it me who is to impatient or should I do anything to kickstart the cycle?
I am awaiting test kit which off course also leaves me a bit “blind” at this point.
Looking forward to hear your thoughts!
