    Myself , i don't add much until i stock the tank. Maybe a few snails if algae pops up. Once i begin to stock i will add shrimp, turbo, cerith, nerite, and narssius snails. Not a big crab or star fish guy

    Ah you got the purple rock ok. The bottle is bacteria. Bacteria you should already have on your live rock. If you have ammonia, bacteria will start to feed on it. Breaking it down into the cycle. If you want to add the bottle go ahead. Imo tho you don't need it. The tank needs ammonia to...
