This weekend I'll be adding my first fish to my 75 gal aquarium, 2 clowns to be exact. My question is how long of a gap should you wait to add other fish?
 
I would say 2-4 weeks, but that varies depend on ur tank ages, ph, temp and so on...I would take it slow, see how the first ones does..
 
I would probably allow about 2 weeks since you're adding two fish and you want the filter to be able to catch up. I usually suggest adding no more than one fish per week. It's always best to take things slow :)
