Dude, let me put my 2 cents in here, I get the part about you using the Nutrafin cycle, as a lot said depends on the size of your tank, etc. From experience, the chemicals only bugger up the initial cycle. They are a gimmick, take the time do it right, drop a shrimp in for a couple of days to kickstart the cycle, monitor and learn, then get in.
My experience in being impatient 2 tanks, 5 fish, 2 sets of coral, including sand rocks and time nearly $700 Canadian.
1 shrimp, maybe $.50-$1.
JMO.
Yours Truly, one broke Canadian.
You yanks and your dollar and close proximity to the oceans and breeders, damn you!
Kidding.
