    It really comes down to whether you want to take the risk. You could get one that doesn't bother your corals, but then again it could sit there and...

    Lighting during or after cycle?

    Its always a back and forth debate. Keeping them off does help with algae blooms, but many people have them on and they are fine. It's more of...

    Salinity, should I raise it

    +1 wait for the cycle to end then raise salinity since you don't want to do any water changes during the cycle. One other thing to make sure of is...

    Mushrooms falling

    Your best bet is to assume roughly 3 gallons/ inch of full grown fish *as a rough estimate*. Some people say 5 gallons per inch, but I think that is...
