Tank needs to have salt water in it before adding bacteria; love the aquascape!

Hello from the states.
tank and scape looks great.

what's the plan for the tank?

I would wait until you get the salinity temp and even flow going. Bac. is live "stuff" that would give it the best chance to spread.
that seems to be the standard but yet the stuff is shipped in a dark bottle in the mail.

but to give it the best chance to do it thing I would wait it also needs a food source -ammonia too.

PS I like the wall by the tank looks sharp

Thanks. TOP would be for acroporas. And the mid and bottom for lps maybe.

I know but i thought that cycling will start and In a 2 days all will be set - salt temp and flow.

Which wall? Stripes or the curtains? I hope that background light will cover the frost so it will not be visible
