Well I have done a little more with the tank this is the order I did it. After the bleach and acid bath I built aqua scape in my driveway and used Fiji Crete then let it sit out side overnight. Then I put it in the tank with a peace of shrimp. I had both of them in there for 3 days. I tested water every day and no change. Then I decided I wanted some live rock so I drove to edmonton to aquarium illusions Saturday and lucky me they were having a sale so I purchased 60 lbs. Drove back and put in tank. Right away I started seeing hitchhiker so have tons of micro brittle stars , sponges, amphipods,asterina micro star ,isopod munnid,bristle worms,and some coral that I don't know. The next day I tested my water again and my ammonia went up a little bit so I pulled out that shrimp. Next day my ammonia was zero again. And the coral looks like it's doing fine and new stuff is growing. I had some coralane die off but a lot is still there. http://i1383.photobucket.com/albums/...pscv6wgt7j.jpghttp://i1383.photobucket.com/albums/...ps6arvgzjt.jpghttp://i1383.photobucket.com/albums/...psdy19uy38.jpg

Do you need to do that with the base rock ???

Scape looks great if you can replicate that in the tank.

I did both and I think it helped get rid of all or any dead stuff on the rock. I have yet to see any sign of my tank doing a cycle

Try posting the Photobucket http link, and then the direct link to the image below it.
In my case, it seems to appease them as my direct links are still working.
