New 315 being set up how long would you wait to add fish?

[dc1718]

I am setting up my new 315 gal. I have about 150-175lbs of cured LR in display another 50-75 in sump with about another 200lbs of Reef Bone for base rock and another 50-75 lbs of LR in my refugium, and added live sand from my current 125 to both refugium and display. I have a quad beckett skimmer that Kicks ARSE with a sequence Hammerhead to run it. My fish are not that big I have a Emperor that's like five inches. Clown Tang that's about 5-6", Purple Tang 4-5", Blue Face 3-4". What do you think? How long should I wait to add one or two?

put a cheap damsel in there (suicide fish) after you think it's cycled

[Wombat_101]

Cycle it with some frozen shrimp. After the tank cycles the shrimp you should be good to go. However with the large skimmer and large tank volume you might be able to put 2 of them in now and monitor your levels.

Putting a damsel in there may be difficult for you if you can't get him out of that tank.

most people dont buy damsels anymore to cycle the system. Just do your water tests after 2 weeks and see if your nitrite and nitrates are down then your good to go slowly.
