Diatoms will appear rather quickly, like before your cycle is even up. You will then notice little white bugs on your glass grazing on the diatoms
Yip, got them as well, small little white buggers,

cool thanks for lettin me know len, beginning to worry I'll never get the diatoms on the go..nothing so far tho. have you got your lights on during cycling?
so to build up a substantial bacteria base, prolonging the cycle would be beneficial to long run tank stability?
mayb prolong is the wrong word, but just not add any livestock to the tank for a lengthy period of time so as not to interrupt the bacteria build up?
