Fishless cycling question

[Scrumpy]

Hello! If I fishless cycle by adding 5 ppm ammonia until my nitrie spikes then 2.5 ppm until ammonia and nitrites are 0 ppm and the 2.5 ppm daily to maintain the bacterial population, is it true that I can then fully stock my tank straight away?
My fish stocking plans change all the time, but currently I'm planning 4 Bosemani rainbow fish, 8 cardinal tetras, 6 zebra danios and 3 peppered corys.
Could I add them all at once at the end of the cycle because the ammonia they create will be less than the 2.5 ppm a day the bacterial population has developed to cope with?
Thanks :-/

Exactly. That's really the whole point of fishless cycle. It allows you to fully stock your tank right away.

Many thanks for the speedy reply. There's alot of emphasis on not sacrificing "hardy" fish and it being more humane, but I've read a lot of articles where they encourage you to fishless cycle and you build up a big colony of bacteria and then they say add two fish at a time afterwards! I was starting to worry :-(
