    Fish go in, ammonia builds up without being processed, fish die.

    You cant not cycle. Its going to happen as soon as there is an ammonia source.

    you WILL cycle. there's no getting around it.


    so it's just a question of how long you drag it out by adding things that die from the cycle... in as few words as i can ;)
