Whiteshark??

Hello Whiteshark,
I have my tank running for three nights, I have added LR that has been cured and I actually went and bouth 2 damsels, I was hoping this would speed up the cycling process.
I have bought a tester for PH,amonia,nitrate, and nitrite, everything was good before I put the fish in.
What do you think??

Personally, i'm not a fan of the "using fish to speed up cycling" method.
1. I think it is cruel to the fish
2. damsels are real mean little buggers, and you probably won't want em once your tank is cycled.

My recommendation, see if the LFS will take em back. In the future, consult RC before your LFS. LFS's will do anything to sell you something (those !@#$%$#) lol. Have patients my friend. I wouldn't add any livestock for at least a couple of weeks.

Check your other thread for my comments on this also, but they are basicly the same as whiteshark.
