Hey guys! Brand new to the forums so, nice to meet you all!
I recently started a 55 gallon saltwater tank, just about 2 weeks ago now. My Ammonia is pretty much gone and am starting my Nitrite cycle. I have 1 Percula Clownfish and 1 Ocellaris Clownfish. 5 pounds of LR, 27 pounds of dry rock. Also with Fiji Pink Sand. API Filstar M and a Maxi-Jet 600.
I just started a new 10 gallon SW tonight. I have the Bio-Wheel Filter Penguin 100 (HOB) so far for equipment. I also have 2 pounds of live rock, 10 pounds of live sand and I just took some sand from my 55 gallon and just spread it across the 10 gal, is that okay? I also for the 10 gal am doing the shrimp cycle. I put it in one of my socks since I didn't have any nylons to put it in.
Just for you all to know, NO fish will go in the 10 gallon until fully cycled
Questions I have:
1. Do I need a light right now for cycling?
2. Do I need a heater for it yet? Or can I wait until its cycled?
3. Has anyone cycled a 10 gallon with a shrimp here? If so, how was it and how long did it take you?
