In a FO saltwater aquarium for startup, does it make sense to start with the bioballs in the tank or is it better to start without them? Won't the nitrogen cycle complete faster if the bioballs are not in the tank? Won't 0 ppm Nitrates be achieved faster?
What really is the purpose of the bioballs if they do nothing else but trap nitrates and keep your nitrate levels high?
