Hello!
I just bought my 40 gallon tank, now what? I am going to be buying live sand and rocks soon, but i need to know what else i have to get to even think about beginning the cycling process. I know i need salt, and a filter. Do i need anything like a protein skimmer, water heads, or wave makers when cycling?Also, while cycling do i need to have my lights turned on? I read online that lights aren't necessary when cycling. Is this true?
