never would have thought tto do that but thats a great idea, work with the flow instead of against it. what ammonia starter stuff are you looking for? if you mean your planning on a quick fishless cycle then i found 10% ammonium hydroxide at Ace Hardware. THey call it janitorial grade, no lemon fresh junk or surfactants.

Oh I just put some bacteria culture stuff in and some piss lol

I think I will let the sand move around in the current before I start adding rocks and drift wood.
