It really isn't as difficult as it sounds. As for the cycle, just get the rock in there and wait. You don't have to check it evryday, I have never owned a test kit and have 2 successfull reefs going. Just wait 3-4 weeks and take a water sample into the fish store. Don't say "can I add fish," 'cause many LFS will say yes to sell you fish and corals. Ask what are my nitrates, nitrites, amonia, ect? If they are exceptable level then continue..
good luck
