I put 2 frozen shrimp (decent size) in my 85 gal aquarium to start the
cycle about 5-6 days ago and now its starting to stink a bit lol.
Think im going to pull them babys out. Anything else work ok, should I
try live rock?


I am a newbie---I just cycled with Live Rock and had a "Stink-Free"
experience. I also used some store bought "Bio-Spira" bacteria that might
have limited the die-off on the Rock a little bit.
I got the Rock on EBAY and it was a fraction of the price I saw it
elsewhere on the `net. I did PLENTY of researching before I took the plunge.
I also got lucky with the Rock---it came with lots of Plants,Pods,worms,
feather dusters and snails (though each shipment is probably totally
different.). Check it out. The seller has positive feedback from dozens of
very happy buyers.
Good Luck---I`m having a great time so far with my project.
