With only 7 lbs of LR it will take awile to get a good pod population going. Be careful of stock you add . Just look in your tank at night few hours after lights go out and you will see more critters as the weeks go by.

It'll take a few months to purple up. Make sure CA MG and alk parameters are OK. But again the "live" of LR is the bacteria, which may take 6 months or more to fully establish.
