New aquarium

[bonedog]

Firstly im a noob. Inherited a 55g cichlid tank a while back and been loving it. Yesterday I ordered a 210g with 2 aquatop cf500 canisters, 150 lbs of crushed coral, 300watt heater and a freshwater+ led lighting. Any advice for what else I need? And how to go about cycling it safely to start putting fish in? Im wanting it to be full of african cichlids.

I have two aquatop cf-500 on my 125 gallon African tank. I love them so much. Quiet as anything else, and very easy to use in my opinion. My levels are always great and never have any trouble with them. I would highly recommend them.
