I don't know how much of a cycle I will have, I used all the rock and sand from my old tank which was about eight months old when I upgraded. If you are referring to a "N&P" cycle and not the typical ammonia/nitrogen cycle, then I probably agree. It also does seem dry rock takes longer for sure. I do have four litres of Matrix in my sump as well.
I will just keep on keeping on. I don't really want to just let it go because I do have a bunch of nice corals in there, if it takes another couple months beyond what is considered normal, I guess that is ok. Agree with the poster saying it's hard to leave it alone, it's not hard, it's frigging agony (lol).
I do have a good sponge population, in fact I have one spaghetti sponge that is kind of invasive and growing a lot, if anyone knows anything I can do about that thing, I'm all ears. Manual removal is fine but it just grows back.
