my 40b reef tank build

How did you cycle so fast?
I used Dr.Tims One&Only along with one fish and small amounts of food. By week 2 the diatoms had come and gone, and then i added one red planet acro and watched carefully how it reacted also added 2 montipora. And after a while i just started adding the sps in little groups. Along with 10% water changes every 2 weeks.
I did get some hair algae, lastes about a week but when i did the gfo and carbon change along with the water change it just browned put and died, and just to make sure, i put in some frags with various algae and it would just wither away.
