It's important to have a stable tank. By this I mean. Ammonia = 0, Nitrite =0 and Nirtate is <20ppm. After the tank cycles generally you will get several algae blooms it's best to wait them out before adding anything. Plus you will want to ensure your CA is around 400 your Alk is around 8 and your PH is at 8.2 to 8.4
