Aquarium Advice FINatic
I FINALLY have my first saltwater tank full of water and pumps running.
I am starting a fishless cycle and currently have 100 pounds of dry rock in the tank. I am in the process of dosing the ammonia to 4ppm (a little at a time so I dont put too much in). I want to add some live rock at some point to start coraline algae growth plus whatever else comes with it (hopefully GOOD stuff).
My question is, do I have to wait for the cycle to complete before adding a piece of live rock or would it be safe to go ahead and add it to the tank (after curing, of course)?
