Cycled Tank Maintenance
I've been fishless cycling my 120g for some weeks noww, and checked my levels last night and they're all 0 except nitrates. Now I dont live in range of a fish store, and not planning on going into the "big" city for a few weeks, is there anything I should do to maintain the bacteria aside from dumping in more ammonia every week, and ghost feed?
Thanks |

if you're sure your tank is done cycling, you can add your clean up crew. i've always ordered from reefcleaners.org. great service and you can customize your crew. they have free shipping on some of their selections.
my only advice would be to stay away from any hermit crabs. they will kill snails for their shells.

You could order a couple of small from LiveAquaria.
a clean up crew would be good. |

CUC does not need lights. I would stop dosing ammonia and just ghostfeed.
