how long did your pico take to cycle? did you see a noticable ammonia spike? I've had mine going since 12/12/08, and nothing yet. I used a little water from a mature tank, and eubbed the filter media from the pico on biomax media that has a year's worth of thriving bacteria on it, so maybe that has something to do with me not seeing a spike. ,,,,cause everything is 0ppm....ammonia, nitrate, nitrite...
Sorry, got excited about my shrimp and forgot to post on your question. Um, the rock i am using in the tank is half from my already established 90 gallon and i let the other half sit in the sump for a couple weeks. Did you initially add a source of ammonia to kick off things?
