Good news...My tank is finally cycled and I put my clean up crew in on Friday...I lost 1 snail within 24 hours but everything else I put in is doing well...so far...Crossing fingers!!!

Right on, good news! Just remember to take it easy on the feeding and remove anything dead(snail). Happy reefing!

+1, people really aren't patient enough. Don't expect instant results and TAKE YOUR TIME! Tank lives should be measured in years, not months.

I didn't try any of those but I don't think I was being impatient...I waited 8 weeks (2 weeks over the recommended time that it should have taken) and then I figured that something I was doing was the cause...which turns out I was right...

I have no issues taking it slow, but at the same time I want to do it right and that means asking questions to make sure that what I have done is the right thing.

Thanks again!
