hey y'all. I just stared 20 gallon tank about 2 months and it's going great so far. I have two clownfish and a 6 line wrasse in there and they're doing good. now i'm ready to add coral and an anemone. i wanna do some zoa, hammer, a bubble tip, and maybe some gsp but i wanted to ask what yall think about that. Thanks so much!
 
Anemones require a more stable and older system to really do well so I would recommend waiting until your tank is around 8-10 months old with stable parameters for those, That being said, Zoas and gsp are great for beginner coral just place them on seperate rocks because they will take over your tank. Toadstools are great too and if its big enough the clowns might host it. If you want a good starter LPS I recommend hammers (also i just love hammers) or frogspawn, Candy canes and Duncans are also great starter LPS.

HOW MUCH DOES A FISH’S FEEDING REQUIREMENTS AFFECT YOUR STOCKING DECISIONS?

  • It depends on whether my nutrient export can handle it
