spoondigity Posted December 10, 2002 Share Posted December 10, 2002 My advice, wait another 2 weeks at least before adding anything. In the end, while you are going for 0 nitrate as a start, you are really going for a good stable system that won't start on the wrong foot. That comes with more time. Mushrooms and Stars are good starters when the tank is established but rushing will only press your luck. And I don't rely on luck if I can help it Link to comment
SoS Posted December 11, 2002 Share Posted December 11, 2002 I agree wait. You'll thank yourself in the long run. Link to comment
printerdown01 Posted December 12, 2002 Share Posted December 12, 2002 Bump. It is possibly that you wont even really see any evidence of a cycle until almost week three. I usually recommend 6 weeks as a "safe" time to start adding coral. Link to comment
