Hi everyone! Thanks for all of your help on my initial post! I brought the tank home today and seems like the emerald crab and green mushroom have been doing good. The crab is busy eating algae off of rocks/floor. You can see him on top of the rock in the photo.

When do you think it is a good idea to start adding fish? For reference, this tank has been running for 3-4 months with the same rock and crab along with 2 CFs/mini CUC. This is also the same water that the seller had, it is not new. I also want to add Caribsea sand at some point.

Freshwater filter only or is it? Have you ever used an HOB filter on a saltwater tank?
