With the rockscape up now is time to start the cycling.
I use Seachem Stability to cycle . Brightwell Bac 7 no stock at this moment

Description
Stability® will rapidly and safely establish the aquarium biofilter in freshwater and marine systems, thereby preventing the #1 cause of fish death: "new tank syndrome". Stability® is formulated specifically for the aquarium and contains a synergistic blend of aerobic, anaerobic, and facultative bacteria which facilitate the breakdown of waste organics, ammonia, nitrite, and nitrate. The bacteria employed by Stability® are non-sulfur fixing and will not produce toxic hydrogen sulfide. Stability® is completely harmless to all aquatic organisms as well as aquatic plants, thus there is no danger of over use. Stability® is the culmination of nearly a decade of research and development and represents the current state of the art in natural biological management.

The bacteria used in competing products are inherently unstable. The conditions necessary for their growth and development fall into a very narrow range of temperatures, pH, organic loads, etc. When any of these parameters are not strictly within the proper range, the bacterial culture quickly crashes and dies. Stability® does not contain any of the aforementioned bacteria.

Directions
Shake well before use. Turn off UV/ozone. Use 1 capful (5 mL) for each 40 L (10 US gallons) on the first day with a new aquarium. Then use 1 capful for each 80 L (20 US gallons) daily for 7 days. Fish and other aquatic species may be introduced at any time as long as dosage is maintained for 7 days. For optimum biofilter performance use 1 capful for each 80 L (20 US gallons) once a month or with each water change and whenever introducing new fish or whenever medicating an aquarium. Product shelf life is 4 years from date of manufacture, see expiration date below.

Stability® should ideally be used in conjunction with biological filtration such as Seachem Matrix™. For emergency ammonia control, use Seachem AmGuard™.
 
Last nite do a NO2 check. Clear .NO2 zero. Will do another NO2 test this Sunday

Nice job...I am wondering why didnt you try the Bio S cycling as you are trying other AF products.
I had try Brightwell Bac 7 and AF Pro Bio S and Bio S in my last tank build so like to try something new.
So far its the first time I try Seachem Stability , hope its work
 
After cycling the chiller 4 days ,find no leak . Last nite 10th Jun 2018 on the chiller

Today try to install my Tunze 9004.
But find it cannot go into my Overflow area

Block by the pipe . The space between the pipe and overflow glass panel is a little less then 70 mm
