You should be wating about 6 weeks before adding anything. Start making some water changes, (about 10% every week) and start testing until your ammonia & nitrates show 0ppm.

cycles can vary greatly depending on the rock you have, when its over depends on your test results for ammonia nitrite and nitrate, some cycles using well established rock can take a few days or if you have uncure rock with lots of die of it may take 6 weeks or longer
