Baby's First Reef Tank

Thanks a bunch! I actually do have a couple of questions about the timing of transferring fish and corals. I'll be adding some live rock from the current tank and a full bottle of bacteria tonight. How long should I wait to add the fish to the new tank? And should I add ammonia to feed the bacteria while the tank has no fish in it? I've heard conflicting opinions about the ammonia.

After adding the bacteria I believe the directions say within 3 days livestock or a source of food must be added. I would move over fish and rock as soon as bacteria is added.
