I was wondering...after ones tank is cycled...and its time to add the fish....should one add a complete load at once....or should one add slowly a fish or two at a time?? I have always heard the latter until recently when I was told to add the bioload all at once otherwise some of the bacteria youve just spent wks accumulating by cycing will die off because they dont have enough food (fish waste). So which is more correct?
 
If you're fishlessly cycling, you can (and should) generally add a full fishload when the cycle is done. This is actually one of the nice advantages of fishless cycling.
