best accelarator for cycling

[Ro Bow]

what is the best and fastest accelarator when cycling a marine aquarium? I want the fastest one. I will have 75 gallon with no sump

Accelerator? Like bottled microbes? Or parameters to help accelerate microbial growth?

Time.

how long and how exactly do you cycle?

Cycling an Aquarium

Cycling a new aquarium. One of the earliest topics a new aquarium hobbyist needs to learn is how to properly cycle their aquarium. There is a ton of information on this process and many different methods on how to accomplish it. There are many different chemical and biological cycles our tank...

1. Some bottled microbe products can help cycle a marine aquarium faster, though FritzZyme Turbo Start 900 seems to work best.
2. Raising temperature to 84-85F helps nitrifiers reproduce faster. You can reduce the temperature once the tank is cycled.
3. Reducing salinity to 18 ppt helps the nitrifiers reproduce faster. You can increase it once the tank is cycled.
4. Perfecting the timing of ammonia dosing at the tail end of nitrite reductions (if you want nitrite to also be oxidized fully in 24 hours) helps.

I use a combo of BioSpira and Prodibio StartUp... I've had fish in since day 8. Did the same with 7 other tanks (mine and friends tanks) with similar results.

I used Fritz Turbostart 900. Added fish a few days later

#1 live rock from another tank, even a pet store. That moves to your 75 still cycled so it’s fastest option. Skip cycle.

#2 fastest are the bottle bac options, some pretty darn fast ones are out there

how many days later, would about 5 or so be alright?

I used some marine pure balls from my 60 when upgrading to a 180 (just one sump to the other with a quick brush off) as well as some microbacter xlm just to be safe. If you add enough live rock or sand then really your just adding to the bacteria population as you go and not really having a cycle.
