Default Cycle Question

I did a partial water change yesterday and the ammonia is still at .25.
Should I keep doing water changes? (theres only live rock and sand)

or if I just wait it out---will the tank simply go through the cycle and
bring itself to equalibrium?





Don't do any more water changes. The best thing you could do though is
get a cup or two of sand from another established tank. That will let
you move a good head start of bacteria into your tank and cut the cycle
time way down.
