The purpose for this system is to import saltwater fish from net caught facilities only and to sell them at wholesale pricing. If your intrested you can check out Net Caught Marined Direct on facebook. Thanks for everyones input on how to cycle my system.

Thanks for the pic! Please don't be turned off by some peoples' lack of control. Forum-based users tend to be harsh instead of providing useful information.

Anyway, I hope you are aiming to sell wholesale pricing to wholesale customers, rather than wholesale pricing to retail customers.

The comments you made in your very first post suggest you want to cycle your tank with a fish, and thus subject said fish to ammonia. That is a cruel and unnecessary way to cycle an aquarium. Fish in ammonia-laden water will be subjected to permanent scarring of their gills also known as ammonia burn.

If you're using "used bio" you shouldn't have any need to add a fish to assist with the cycle. For all that matters, just add a small amount of straight ammonia to the system along with the bio material and you will have your tank cycled without the use of live rock (which I assume is what you're wanting to do).

You could have avoided all this by simply stating, "Looking for large fish for 750-gallon system."

I find it funny that people say I am cruel for using a fish to cycle my tank, but most people are buying cyanide caught fish but that's ok that your promoting the poisoning of fish so you can save a few dollars. If people were really conserend about the health of there fish then they need to do some research and stop promoting cyanide caught fish.

Please refrain from advertising fish here please.

I find it funny that you could have saved yourself a whole lot of grief by posting your thread correctly ...
If you only wanted large fish to "keep" your cycle alive, why didn't you just post that, instead of offending a whole bunch of us with info that leads us to believe that you will be subjecting fish to an ammonia cycle ?

You say you know how to run large tanks, and plan on running a wholesale outfit ... so why are you posting on a small forum to start with ?

Are you even allowed to post this info here ?

And if you're planning on starting a wholesale outfit, why are you recruiting us when any small/or larger business should be able to start itself without our help in the first place ?

Maybe I'm misunderstanding the whole idea here, but I don't like someone coming on here, bypassing the forum rules for vendors, and stating whatever they like

Bah
