this might be a dumb question, but is there such a thing as gently cycling a new tank?
The live rock i bought has a bunch of corals and anemone on it, and I'd hate for them to die. Is there a way i can keep the ammonia and nitrites etc, low(ish) so they'll live through it?
I'm doin partial water change every few days as it is. This is day 4, here's my params:
Temp: 79 F
Ammonia: 1.0ppm
Nitrate: 5.0ppm
Nitrite: 0.25ppm
pH: 8.1
