For sure. This is the second tank I set up with dry everything. Learned a lot from the last. Not planning on transferring until June or July. I’m not in a rush. I have plenty of bacteria and ammonia I plan to get through before I start thinking about putting anything in it.

The tank is already starting to clear up and look good. I’m going to overdose bacteria and nopox to cause a bacterial bloom. I’ve also stopped running the skimmer.
