My tank is a day or two from cycling if I added a filter now would it slow down the cycleing process?

Thanks jeff. Ill set this baby up then. I got a fluval 304. Its the only canister filter around here. I was going to get an eheim but nobody stocks them. and they dont stock the 404 either. Oh well This should be good enough.

another question..... carbon or no carbon?

No Carbon. It's generally used for removing meds.

With the Fluval you should get some nice clear water
