Imagine for a moment that you are given a sterile glass box. Now fill that glass box with saltwater. It’s pretty isn’t it? The water virtually sparkles because it is so clean and clear and crisp. Now imagine heading down to the local fish store and buying a True Percula Clownfish ( Amphriprion percula ) and putting it in your glass box. At first the clownfish seems quite happy, but then, it starts not to look so good. What’s happening?
The truth of the matter is that your clownfish is poisoning itself with its own waste. A sterile marine tank is, in fact, the worst kind of tank.

While you still need to perform regular maintenance and use a reliable filtration system, the fully cycled tank is a much more stable environment.
