It's been a little over a week and I'm pretty sure my tank has cycled. I had an ammonia spike and then tested again at the end of the week and now...
Thanks for the solid advice. It's not always what you want to hear, just what you need to hear. Trying to explain asking for advice on here to my...
Gotcha. I still plan on testing.
If a friend gives me enough of his water from a water change to fill half my new tank(29g), will I be able to skip the cycle? He is also going to...
I'm convinced. Did some more research and think I'm going to go with the photon 16 from reefbreeders.com. Seems like good quality fixture for a...

Will the live rock have enough die-off if I pick it up from my lfs (right down the street) or should I let it sit out for a while? I was under the...
Thanks for the advice. Actually had a hard time searching for an answer to this one.
