Hey guys I posted a few days ago about cycling my 240, I was not clear with you guys and caused some confusion. Here are the details. I have had the tank running for about 3 weeks. It has 200 pounds of live sand, about 150 pounds of live rock. First day it was cycling I added 10 bottles of some special new product - some sort of bacteria in a bottle, it is dry and then you add water and it dissolves,(it is supposed to cycle the tank instanty bull@#$#@) well anyways I added it, then added damsels, then about a week ago added a few triggers and tangs, no ammonia spikes, There have really been no traces of Ammonia through this whole period. Nitrites skyrocketed,and have been going down slowly and the nitrates are slowly building know. I am not even running the skimmer yet. I am running a large wet dry system, fluidized bed filter right know. The tank has about 3200 gallons per hour turnover. How much longer should I expect, if I can expect anything. Thanks, Justin
