Cycling....and a dead fishy....

[sharky222]

Need advice!

My tank has been up and running for about 3 weeks, with live rock and sand. I guess it is cycling?....but no sign of ammonia yet.

I added a chromis and a blue damsel about 10 days ago. They seemed to be doing well, so I added another 5 chromis and another blue damsel 2 days ago.

I found the new damsel dead today (he actually didn't look too lively when I put him in, and wasn't eating, so this was not a huge surprise). All of the other fishies are doing great. Still no sign of ammonia.

Question is: do I leave the dead fish in the tank? Or remove it? Will it help the tank cycle?
