Hey all!
Excited to be a part of the community. I recently picked up a WaterBox Cube 20. It looks great, im really excited to get it going.
I have been trying my best to figure out the best way to cycle the tank, and have heard a ton of mixed opinions. I even watched some videos online that said you could add fish the next day, and others that say wait 4-6 weeks. At the end of the day I do understand that I need the Bio Filter to be able to successfully break down Ammonia and Nitrites into nitrates before any fish should be added, but what about CUC and corals? I want to do this the correct way, and will let nature run its course.
I added about:
10lbs of Caribsea LifeRock
Caribsea Agro Fiji Pink Live Sand
Brightwell Aquatics Microbackter7
Purchased ammonium chloride (Still trying to figure out how often to add this)
I am waiting on my AI prime light, which will be here in a few days. Is it ok to let the tank cycle while I wait?
Thanks all.
