newbie- please help with fishless cycling!

if you use biospira there's really no need to go through a fishless cycle. if you follow the instructions, bio-spira allows you to add all your fish at once, with no cycle or a very short one which is easily controlled.

I've never seen this stuff. It sounds to good to be true. What is it?

Well you know the saying... if it's too good, it usually is. Not saying it's not a good product, but I've definitely seen a lot of posts that show it's not a perfect product. It can be hit or miss, I believe probably having to do with it's age, how long it sat in the store fridge, how they cared for it, etc. For some people it does absolutely nothing.
 
thanks for all the posts, i have one question concerning the water changes. do you perform them? how much if so. and the final water change should be how long relative to when I get my fish. like the night before or two days? and when do I stop adding ammonia relative to the day i get my fish?
 
You Got Me!

HaHa...I guess you got me on the Seacrest ammonia alert...that's what I get for giving advice when I am at work and can't look at my tank!

The picture was hilarious!
