Mojeska Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 I have a recently cycled 20 gallon tank (month old). When is it safe to start adding corals? I see a lot of people mentioning "established" or "well established", not exactly sure what time frame that equates to. Do I need to wait a few months, or is it safe to start with something hardy now? Thanks! Link to comment
ReefSafeSolutions Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 If the tank is cycled, you can add coral now. Link to comment
flatlandreefer Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 Should be good to go if you are cycled but it would be wise to stock it slowly in the beginning and start out with some hardy corals. Do you have any fish yet? For corals that required a well established tank they are more referring to 6-12 month age where the biological filtration is mature and can help keep parameters rock solid as well as the owner being aware of what it takes to keep parameters in check. There are plenty of options that will be fine in a new tank. Link to comment
