cycling products like stress zyme and "cycle" are very controversial and while a lot of people sya it works, a lot of people also reckon that it doesnt and that it is junk. its a classic case of seeing what works for your set-up, as everyone is different and our experiences all vary from one...
phosphates can also be found in ph altering products (eg: ph up/down), which can cause high amounts of algae to form which is why not many people would reccomend on here.
HTH :D
definately not corys as they cant tand even a little nitrite. unless u would consider getting more hardy fish (mollies, danios etc) then i would wait a little longer. -_-
im in england so we have giant pet store and pets at home. i buy most of my fish ood, conditioner etc from a chain store (the 2 stores mentioned) but i'll buy most of my fish frm lfs's.
like the other said, altering your ph, especially when you already have fish in your tank, is not a good idea.
also, the phosphates in most ph altering products cause exessive algae growth.
HTH :D
