There is a lot of information out there. The more you read, the better it stick. Ha he when I first started I felt like I was studying for a test anytime I researched a topic, now I enjoy it. Reading magazine, Coral Magazine is a good one, really helped me get into the topics.So far on phosphates none just tons of reading and it doesnt help that im the kinda guy that can read something and then totally forget what i just read.. But as far as a 10 gallon goes how many fish could i get away with having? I really want 2 fish..
Anyway, 10 gallons is a difficult size... I don't know if a clown would be happy in a 10 and I don't know if if your swissguard would bully a firefish. I know my firefish was a delicate little flower and shes gone now because of it . All fish have different temperaments, so it's really a gamble in the end. Another thing to think about is that more fish = bigger bioload. If you were struggling with nigh nutrients before, you definitely would be after adding another source of it. Personally, I'd wait until the tank matures a bit then add another one.
Side note, I see swissguards are semi-aggressive so now you may run into the problem if adding an extremely shy fish to a small tank with a possibly aggressive fish that has probably already claimed the whole tank his. Again, no way to know until it happens, just a little food for thought.
