It's been long time since I've had an aquarium and decided to take my enpty 20g tank out of the attic and make a nano reef tank. I have 20lbs. of live sand, 10 pounds of dry rock and 10 lbs of live rock that I purchased from the LFS. I am 3 days up an running and am wondering if I need to put a raw shrimp in the tank to cycle, or if the tank will do it on its own.
Here are my water test results:
Day 1: pH - 8, Ammonia - .75, Nitrite - 1 and Nitrate - 10
Day 2: pH - 8, Ammonia - .25, Nitrite - .25 and Nitrate - 20
Day 3: pH - 8, Ammonia - .25, Nitrite - 0 and Nitrate - 10
The only life i see in there are some pods running around the live rock. Do I need to be feeding them and if so, what do you recommend.
Thank you.
