I’m still planning my Reefer 250 and have already purchased all my equipment, rocks, etc. I expect to get the tank wet and cycling in a couple of weeks.
In the meantime, i have a 20 gallon wide tank that I’m setting up as a QT with a HOB filter, heater and Powerhead.
Do I need to cycle the QT fully before introducing my first fish? I’d like to start with a pair of Oscelaris Clowns. I’ve added biospira and have bio media in the HOB filter with no charcoal. How long should I wait to introduce fish to the QT?
