Welcome! If you live near Dubai, they have some of the best/most impressive fish stores in the world

Thank you! I am in Abu Dhabi but will definitely drive the 1h30 to an impressive fish shop! Any recommendations?

Welcome Tamryn, glad you are here! I’ve never used bottled bacteria to cycle just live rock, so hopefully someone will chime in. I use Salifert test kits that are affordable. Many on here like Hanna, a little pricier.

Thank you! Yes, I did see the Hanna ones... will have to save for those

Welcome to R2R and the salty world Tamryn. Take things slowly. Lots of knowledgeable and helpful people here who will support and advise you when needed. Hannah, Salifert, and Red Sea are all good test kits. Avoid API.

Thank you for the advice!
