Currently, I am a week into my cycle. I have now covered the tank with blankets and shut the lights off, so that it is a lightless cycle. I am also running my skimmer with full filtration.
I'll wait another week and do a 20% water change, as well as trim and siphon off as much of the hair algae as I can. My water is 0 TDS so the die off from the LR would be the only reason that nutrients are in the tank.
