Hello all. I am pretty new to the site so bare with me if this has been answered. I just started a 40gal reef and has been cycling for the past 5 days. Ive been testing and have recorded no amm,nitrite or nitrate. Question is and I've heard from a few is if I have live sand and live rock that has been in an established aquarium will there still be an ammonia spike or do I have to start one(shrimp, amm drops etc..) I know this "cycle" takes time and I am by no means rushing anything. Just not sure if I should let it be or try and make some ammonia. Thanks again for all your help.
