ferpayson Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 I just started my tank about three hours ago and I am already starting to see hitchhiking corals. I see a little pink coral that looks exactly like a candy cane coral, I really want to ensure this little guy lives past the cycle. Is there anything I can do to ensure his safety? I see two others so far, not sure exactly what they are but look very cool=D. I will provide some picture tomorrow, the tank is still a little unsettlted from the sand. Thanks everyone! -Brenden Link to comment
sublunary Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 Quickest answer - search the site for "soft cycle", do lots of reading, pick the technique that works best for you. Link to comment
Dani3d Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 If you cycle with cured liverock than you will have near to no cycle. My cycle was done in a week with cured liverock and I had bearely a trace of ammonia. Link to comment

How often did you test your amonia, nitrates, nitrites, and pH? Thanks so much, Brenden Link to comment
