If you're using dry rock alone, I was under the assumption that all the goodies that trigger a cycle are dead and long gone. That you have to season your tank with something. Maybe someone can spare you a little chunk of live rock? Additionally you can also go with the shrimp method. Raw shrimp will deteriorate and kick off the proper bacteria. No idea how long it's going to take though.

Don't do the damsel method though...

Incidently, how long are you going to cycle for? Or, if I can be more specific, how long are you going to wait after your params hit zero to add livestock?
