so its cycled, okay but about the huge amount of fishes i ordered like will i be losing them all or is there a possible way of keeping them aliveYou can cycle them fast with live rock or bacterial additives.
You need to get hold of beneficial bacteria in a bottle. You need to buy something that will bind ammonia in case it rises. You need to test ammonia, nitrite and nitrate often to see where you are at in the cycle. Also I don’t see rock in the holding pond. Water will not cycle if there is nothing for the bacteria to attach to. You need rock.i know and thats why i came here for help if i didnt care i wouldn't be so worried i made a mistake just like anyone would ,got excited when seeing them and then started to get worried about losing them due to my horrible idea, so what should you guys recommend me to do even if the tank was cycled and ready how would i be able to add all these fish in it wouldn't be possible?
wdym by light up the tank?Also if you plan to light the tank. Macroalgae will take up ammonia directly so that is something else you could add.

the rocks are on the corners behind i have literally 40lbs of live rock that i gotYou need to get hold of beneficial bacteria in a bottle.

At this point it will be damage control to try to get them through the process, if at all possible.
How many gallons is this and what do you all have for filtration on this setup? Is that nylon webbing in the tank? I hope none of the fish are small enough to fit through the (apparent) gaps in that mesh. Is this tank polymer or some kind of material?yes def

what can i possibly do to help prevent thatThe tank might be able to handle the fish. If the rock was good live AND NOT DEAD DRY ROCK, you will fair better.
They might all die to disease though regardless if the tank is cycled.
Like I said, buy seachem prime to detox ammonia and make a bunch of extra saltwater as a precaution. I would also buy some fish medicine...

yes definitely thankyou very muchTreat them if disease shows up. Have various meds on hand on ready, have lots of water on hand and ready... buy brute cans or whatever to make the water.

What kind of internal filters and canister filter? What about a protein skimmer? Any carbon or GFO? What about a UV sterilizer? How often and what are you going to be changing out, cleaning and/or replacing?its approximately 400 gallons and i have 3 internal filters and a huge canister filter
