cycle ? for my biocube 8

[AARON167]

I just set up a biocube 8gal with store bought live sand, and some dead "live" rock I had soaking in saltwater. Will there be a small cycle, or a normal cycle. Just wondering and would like some input. Thanks.

I am afraid only a test kit can answer your question. When ammonia and nitrite are zero you can call it done.
