So I got my liverock to seed my tank so I'm ready to start my cycle. Few questions...
1. I know the raw shrimp method is best and I've used this for my 2 tanks. However, I kind of want to put a few fish in and make sure the paint I used for the tank and all is okay. Like tester fish to make sure the water is okay. Is this a good idea and what fish should I use? Chromis? Damsels?
2. At MAX I got this thing in my bag that supposedly helps to cycle a tank. I wasn't going to use it, but then I thought...maybe it would be a good experiment to test the product. I am in no hurry to cycle and don't mind doing it the normal way at all, but I thought I may give the product a try. Thoughts?

So my cycle has started! Put shrimp in a few days ago! Ammonia was about 1 last time I checked! Will keep you posted on when the cycle is done.

So here are some photos of the new tank! Nothing special yet, but once i get more coral and the rock has time to mature, it should look pretty neat!
