On Saturday I added the water and rocks that have been cooking in semi dark for the past 5 - 6 months. On Sunday I added a bag of Carib Sea Ocean Direct Live Sand. I'm pretty sure that it's "live" benefit ended a long time ago, but I liked the type of sand it was. This morning I notice a couple of little pods running when the flashlight caught them.

Today I did the following tests using Hagen test kits:
Ammonia: 0
Nitrate: 0
Nitrite: less than .1

So I figure that the cycle has not even started yet. I have a rock in another tank loaded with Anthelia and sponge patches. I was thinking that if I tried to pick off the Anthelia and the sponge patches get a little air, this might be enough to start the cycle.

You could also try adding a raw table shrimp or ghost feed the tank with mysis once or twice. That should kick start things.

Here's some pictures of the preliminary aquascaping. Due to my camera skills I cannot get a picture that shows the depth of the tank. From the front glass to the overflow it's 28".





This is a picture of the 20 gal holding tank. These will go in when the tank has finished cycling.

Looking good! I like your aqua-scaping.
