Still waiting for the ammonia to come down so its still kinda in phase 1. But if you look on the bright side the longer it takes my QT to cycle the more established my DT will be once I get the jawfish. My tank has been up for 3 months already! Would it be safe to try some zoas at this point?

yah that would be fine try out some RADE or a not so rare zoa first
Ya I was thinking about going to a LFS and picking something out that is at least somewhat colorful. I dont plan on spending much I just hope they live. What is RADE?

I have another question. At what point do people start counting how long their tank has been established? Adding the LR? After the cycle?

I might pick up some zoas next weekend. Everything in the tank is still about the same. Lots of lime green coraline growing and my emerald crabs are molting so everything seems comfortable.

QT- ammonia- .25
nitrite- .2
nitrate- 5
Why is this taking so long?!?!?!
Its been over a month. I though cycles were only supposed to take 2-3 weeks.
