Hello everyone!

I have completed cycling my tank and am looking to add my first 2 clownfish.

Can I add them straight into my tank without quarantine and what process should I follow when adding to my tank? This is the first livestock going in.

Appreciate any advice!
 
If you are asking us if you should quarantine, that is a personal choice, some do some don't. If this is your first experience with fish keeping, then I would suggest to quarantine until you get a hang of the hobby. Just my 2 cents, good luck with your first fish.
 
I also suggest quarantining new fish, or purchasing your fish from a vendor who offers fully QT'd fish.
