I recently upgraded from a 90 gallon tank to 150 gallon. I have filtration and skimmer. Also added bacteria. I used new live sand. I did rinse it a little in new saltwater. (Hopefully didn't wash out the bacteria in it) and used some of my old rock that was already cycled. My lfs recommended having 30" of fish in the new tank. I looked it up and found out it to be true. My ammonia is high. I did buy new fish to get closer to that 30" mark. And I love the fish that I have. But im a worrying type of guy. Should I get more bacteria and also get ammonia catching pads or just let it cycle? I've been doing this just over a year. And though my first small tank that I started off with had high ammonia, when I upgraded the 2 other times, it didn't.
