Starting for the first time

[Beermaster]

Hi all, i am now ready to take the dive into SW keeping

I have kept FW for a few years and i want to take my hobby to the next step!

I have a 55 hagen tank, that i am about to fill with water and sand
now how long till i start putting Livestock into it

I purchaced a bunch of rocks and coral from Fish that i am picking up May Long so i figure a month of cycling sould be ok, but i could be wrong here

I have been reading myself stupid on this site and on RC

anything else i should get prepared for?

thx
