    Omg...
    Please, for the love of all who ever read this...

    Don't use Urine, please.. please.. please.. ignore anyone that says to use urine. Yes it chemically has the parts needed to start a cycle, but it also contains human blood cells and if you have any type of infection - this will also join your tank....

    Not to mention, "EWWW!"

    Throw 1 bit of frozen shrimp in there and check back in 3 weeks. Save your supplies, don't test for 3 weeks. Just let it rot.. and take out the carbon in your bio-wheel.

    Don't run carbon during the cycle.

    Good luck and look forward to seeing many pictures and hear about how much you enjoy the new hobby!
