It's easiest to cycle without fish. Just liverock and livesand, or grocery store shrimp. It's really that simple. Some fish you may want to look at for your 55 are large clowns, hamlets, smaller eels, dwarf lions, hawkfish, toby puffers, etc.
 
Thank you
i was just asking if it was possible to cycle with a gruper.
i had no intentions of doing it :(
but can u really cycle wiht flake food i have heard of the shrimp but never tried it. i am the old fashion way i guess

one more thing i forgot to ask was is it a to double up on filters?
like a wet/dry and then go wiht the under gravel also???
