So here it is this the reason I'maskingabout howmanyraw shrimpI need to cycle my tank, Enjoy https://forums.saltwaterfish.com/t/386044/lets-talk-about-cycling

Lol, please excuse me I should be more spacific when I type but I figured Ya'll know and for that I apologize, I do have sand and baserock in my tank, but I didn't feel I wanted to buy live sand or rock, so I just asked how much raw shrimp I would need to use to cycle my tank that way, but I...

from what I've read all live sand or rock is, is sand or rock that has bacteria that has grown that in turn creates living creatures and that can be created instead of having to buy that expensive live rock and sand. now please correct me if I'm wrong. Quote: Originally Posted by TeresaQ Why no...

I'm sorry for sounding stupid when I asked about NH3 but I'm no scientist and new to saltwater aquariums, but I'm trying to gather all the useful information I can in the process of putting together my fishtank and making it a healthy place for the fish I plan to invest in.

so I can buy one of those at petsmart or my LFS ? Quote: Originally Posted by saxman This is what we used to cycle our 100 gal: The NH3 alert tells us when the first spike happens. We use a mesh bag so we can remove the fish/shrimp chunks when we're ready.

Well there is a Article on this site on different ways to cycle and one of them is without using live rock or sand to start but establishing your own through the process of using raw shrimp, scallops, or fish and instead of being cruel and using starter fish or fish food I'm choosing to go this...

Hello, it's been a longtime coming, well today I'm ready to start my cycling of my 85 gallon tank without live rock or sand and without starter fish, I plan to use raw shrimp to start my cycling process and my question is how many shrimp should I use ? to list what I have as far as equipment: I...

So what would you suggest as a group fish for a dwarf lionfish tank ?

Ok, so does anyone think its good to put yellow tail Damsels in my tank with a Dwarf Fuzzy Lionfish ?

thank all of you and thanks mike for moving my thread, I'll be asking alot of questions i n the future.

I read that article and now have a whole new outlook and better understanding and using Damsels won't be a way I'm going to go, thank you so much you've been a great help.

Oh Ok, and if I may ask how do I do that ? meaning move this to another fourm ? and thank you for the advise because I dont want to do something that would make for a unhealthy tank, but i want to ask, I have store bought sand already so I can just add that and will the Damsels contribute to it...

thank you again for your advice and time.

Saxman I looked the at the choices you gave me and I really dont like any of them, and you say theres a lot of possibilities whats some more ? mind I would like some color to bring out the tank.

Well I have got suggestions from Saxman, and he has given me a list of different fish that I can put in the tank as tankmates, I guess I'm being hardheaded, but I'll look into the fish he gave me it's my wife that wants the FlameAngelfish because she likes the color but I guess she'll never see...

Really, I seen in a LFS a flame angel in the tank with a lionfish, but you don't think its good Ideal Huh ?

I've decide to add a flame angelfish and Lionfish and snowflake Eel in my tank so with one should I add first and last.
