In reading that article I am going to be waiting 6 months to a year before adding any fish? This is the first place I have read this. In the book " The Consceinist Marine Aquairist " it shows adding fish at about the 32-34 day depending on tank "cycling".

I understand their concept and it makes sense. When we do add fish it will be at least a month probably two before any more fish are add to the tank. Due to if I have any problem I would rather kill one or two than kill 5-6. I am not going to even think about attempting corals for atleast another year.

Did anyone else wait 6 months or longer to add fish? Is this a new concept or have I just not come across it? I haven't read about it anywhere else?

Very good post, has me thinking now.

Thanks.
