Do not on the lights first. Consider yesterday as the first day of cycling. Cycling will takes at least 2-4weeks. U can throw in market prawn to speed up process and in between do some small scale water changes. U can cont'd dosing yours bacteria additives.

No problem, maybe u can read up more on setup and cycling from this forum, internet or from other reef keeping books.

No need to change water during cycling. Just top off the evaporation losses with distilled water. You should do a 50% change at the end of the cycle before putting in any LS. Lights can be on or off during cycling but switch it on if you are using live rocks and would like to keep the coralline algae alive.
