marty Member Apr 23, 2003 #2 Nope, but having at least one helps start the cycle process. And if you plan to add live rock after the cycle, you will need to cure the rock prior to adding it.

islandgirl Member Apr 23, 2003 #4 I put both live rock and live sand in my tank to help cycle it. I definately speeds up the cycling process!
