I started a 20g tank with about 15lbs of dry rock. I put in a handful of live rock rubble from a tank thats about a year old to seed it. I also put in 2 bioballs from my existing tank and have been feeding it with flake food every two days. There is live sand
Its been up and running for about a week and a half and its not showing any signs of ammonia yet.
Is it possible the tank cycled within the first 5 days to the point where the ammonia cycle is done? I didn't start testing for it until about day 6 and since then have been getting readings of 0. Haven't checked for nitrates yet.
