Pick up a couple uncooked JUMBO shrimp at your local fish market, put them in a filter, put in tank the sit back and call it a day. The fishless cycle is wonderful thing.

or just drop a cube of frozen food or some flakes it all does the same thig, really isnt going to speed up the cycle though, can just as well take a rock from well established system to add all the bacteria needed
