Hi, everyone,,,going to set up a new 30 gal FO tank,,,just had a question about the dead shrimp method of cycling the tank,,,how do I do it? just throw a dead one in,,from the store or a special shrimp or what?
It's my understanding (haven't set my tank up yet) that you'll want to have the substrate and live rock in the tank already - the bacteria need someplace to grow so they can establish populations and do their jobs.
