Ok i'm slowly moving forward in my 120 gallon build. I Bleached my Rock in a tub for 2 weeks, then gave my rock a muriatic Acid bath. I then put it in RODI water and tested for phosphates which were minimal after soaking for a week. I took the Rock out and Aquascaped. Now I'm going to put them back in a container with RODI saltwater and a heater and start my cycle in the bins.
Here's to my question: I dosed with pure ammonia, do I let the cycle begin normally on its own or would i benefit from adding a bottle of Beneficial Bacteria to speed the process along?
The rock is staying inside the container for at least 2 months before going into the tank.
