I'm new to saltwater and new to aquariums in general. I'd like to get the opinions of you veterans out there on how I should proceed with my 100 gallon tank setup. I've purchased a 100 gallon tank from a friend who is upgrading to a larger tank. At this point, I'm almost done with the aquascaping of my dry rocks and ready to cycle my rocks for the next two months.
My 100 gallon tank with come fully assembled and ready to go with live sand and a living sump. My question is, if I'm cycling my dry rocks over the next 2 months to make them live, should I start fresh with a clean tank and clean out the sand and sump and start fresh? Or do I leave the sand and sump and whatever bacteria and pest may be in there and just add my rocks to it?
I'm not sure how I should proceed.
thx
