Livestock:
2 fancy ocellaris clowns (Spot and Flip)
1 royal dottyback (Berry)

Coral (I love torches!!!):

5 torches ( Holy grail, juicy fruit, indo gold, cotton candy, and unnamed) -yes I know have too many….

Welcome to R2R! You have come to the right place. Folks here are very nice, and always willing to help! You should start a build thread to show us as your tank progresses!
 

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

  • It depends on whether my nutrient export can handle it

    Votes: 10 24.4%
  • Not much. I’m willing to adjust my routine

    Votes: 9 22.0%

  • I usually learn about the demanding feeding schedule after buying the fish!

    Votes: 2 4.9%
  • I haven’t really considered this before
