Why not just use tetra safe start and instant cycle the tank without harm to any fish?

Both tetra safe and stability will work. Most people just prefer Seachem products..... Just set your tank up as you would and start doing what it says on the bottle and if you want you can start adding fish immediately or if your not in a rush than wait the week to get it to cycle with just a couple fish in there to help boost the cycle rate and as long as you don't drop a bunch of fish in there you won't have to worry about any of your levels being to high and than just do normal water changes once a week and slowly introduce fish at the end of the week of cycling.
