Interested to see your test results on how the cycle is going with skimmer and filter floss. Also with no ammonia added until the fish went in. Keep us posted.

Hi everyone

My tests came and I took my tests. The results are a bit interesting. I am sharing the pictures. I am waiting for your opinions.

For now;

PH: 8.1
Salinity: 1024
Nitrate: 0 or 2
Phosphate: 0.1
KH: 9.4
Temperature: constant 25.5

It seems like everything is fine for now, but it's a bit interesting that the nitrate in the new tank has been reset. Anyone with knowledge about this can inform me

Apart from these, a Dr. I added shrimp and Yellow wrasse. Of course, as you know, the wrasse entered the sand just as it entered the water, and now we will wait for it to come out
Shrimp survived a minor accident. After adding it to the aquarium, I left it for a short time and when I returned, I found it stuck to the back of the wave motor. I immediately ran and cut off all electricity, then touched it lightly with my hand and removed it, but unfortunately it lost its 2 legs. Fortunately, I think it will come into place at the first molt.
Afterwards, while taking the pictures, I realized that I think he also has eggs

This is the situation for now and there are still no signs of diatoms. I share images with the lights off. Just now, when I was posting the picture, I noticed that there are some formations on the rear plexiglass, but the turbo seems to be doing a good job. Looks like I'll add 1 more

I'm waiting for your comments.

Have you tested for ammonia or nitrite at all? That's what you want to be watching during your cycle.

Where are the other two fish you added are they alive still? With the addition of the wrasse is that 3 fish total now and a cleaner shrimp plus clean up crew?

I don't have ammonia and nitrite tests, I didn't take them. I didn't want to buy them for now since I won't need them much in the future. I think my fish would have problems if I had too much ammonia, but they are very healthy. But my next tests will be Mg and Ca after I start taking coral.

Yes they are alive, I even have a little trouble with the first damsel I added. A few days later, he is very excited about the other damsel I added to him as a friend. Yesterday, the cleaner wasted the shrimp a little bit and then left it behind. I think if it continues like this, I will take out that little devil But since wrasse is bigger than him, I hope he will bring him to his knees. We will wait for it to emerge from the sand.

Currently, the total live is in tank;
1 yellow wrasse
2 Talbot's damsels
1 Cleaner Shrimp
1 Turbo snails
2 conches
