Suggestion for new aquarium setup

[nish]

Nish -- I'm confused. You said at first you wanted to cycle fishless and then you later said you wanted to cycle with fish. Which is it? I highly recommend fishless. I have cycled with fish before (due to impatience because I wanted fish sooner) and found it to be an awful experience. I would not recommend it.

Yes, I am planning for fishless cycling. But I said if cycling with fish with little precautions then I would not mind going with it also.

Well, you will have no chance of keeping fish alive doing a cycle with fish and no test kit.

Get a test kit. API master liquid is what we all use and recommend.
