Time Frame: May be zero, as in "instantly cycled", to a few (2-3) weeks generally.

If you can be sure that a friend, friendly store has no standing issues with pests, parasites, you might utilize some of their "used" filter media, sand/gravel, and "muck" (the gunk that can be vacuumed out from the bottom) to establish nitrogen cycling. Such precious

They work the same way as a fluorescent tube but the surface area of the tube has been increased slightly and more phosphors added. They require more electricity than regular fluorescents but the payoff is huge! They produce nearly four times the light-output per watt than regular fluorescents and in our experience, degrade slower and last longer. They come close to the output of metal halide bulbs with relatively-precise color temperature production, though metal halide bulbs produce a far bro

High quality live rock, live sand with or without the Jaubert plenum arrangement, vigorous circulation, and improved protein skimming are de riguer. Often, where space and budgets allow, aquaris
