Hello all,
Third thread in a week, I guess I am becoming a regular here. I want to say thank you right away to everyone who has responded to my previous questions, you have all been very welcoming and helpful.
OK, on to my new question: I just started cycling my new 60gal Tank+sump last Friday. I am cycling with four Green Chromis and some live sand added to my new substrate. I just purchased a UV filter and two extra power heads to add some sterilization and circulation. I haven't been able to find a clear idea of whether or not to use the UV sterilizer during the cycling phase. I assume there could be good reasons not to as well as good reasons to start it up and get it running, but a search of the previous threads hasn't really told me anything.
I also have a protein skimmer in my sump which I am not running during this cycling phase, is that necessary, or should I just leave it off?
Thanks for your advice.
