Well said, Vaughn.
I would also urge you to test the water parameters regularly, especially when you have fish in the tank to take any precautionary measures should the parameters go out of range. Get a standard, pH, Ammonia, Nitrite and Nitrate test kit from your LFS. If you're interested in learning about what happens during the cycling process, track the measurements for the above-mentioned 4 parameters and chart it. You'll see how it works.
You can also check out the chart here.
