Seeding Rock Question

Currently setting my old dead LR to seed and cure with 8 lbs of new LR. I am also going to be getting Dr Tim's ammonia tomorrow to start building the bacteria. What else should I be doing to help with this process? Not in a rush here I want to do it right. It's a 75 gallon tank. It's in the process of moving from upstairs to the basement. Thanks ahead for any help.

 

Looks and sounds like your doing everything correctly.

 

Should I be doing weekly water changes of 25% or 100? Also it smells real nice in the basement :-(

 

I would not do water changes, just top off. Just make sure you do not get a stalled cycle, and if you do just do small water changes.

 

looks good to me!

 

Should I add bacteria?

 

I would add the Dr.Tims, but you do not have to. It might assist in speeding up the cycle.

 

Which Dr Tims? The one for reef or fish only?

 

Either is probably fine. Dr.Tim's One and Only right?

He does have a forum here if you want to post that question to him.
