Should the water in a saltwater aquarium that is cycling be changed?
When I am cycling a tank, fresh or salt, I do not change the water. I maintain the water level (and the salinity), but I never change it. The goal is to let the bacteria build up and eat the bad stuff, so physically removing the bad stuff will only delay the cycling process.

If you experience a nitrite spike during the cycling process of your aquarium, you should perform a partial water change to reduce the nitrite levels.

Monitoring water parameters regularly and avoiding overfeeding can also help prevent future nitrite spikes.

You trasfer the shark and the glowfish to an established aquarium, and wait for the danios to help cycle the new tank until it's balanced, then you can put the others back in. If you're lucky, they may be able to withstand the cycling of the tank, but it will most likely shorten their lifespan.

It served as a self-sustaining habitat, with the plants producing oxygen and the fish contributing to nutrient cycling. Additionally, it may have included interesting elements like shrimp or snails to help maintain the ecosystem's health. The aquarium was a testament to the beauty and complexity of aquatic life.
Can you use chlorine water for aquarium?
Yes, as long as you use a de-chlorinator, this can safely be done. Make sure the de-chlorinator destroys both chlorine and chloramines- many only remove one of the two. If you can find a de-chlorinator that also destroys ammonia, than that is an added bonus as it will come in handy when dealing with ammonia spikes when cycling an aquarium.
