Need advice for 30 gallon

[M-anemone]

Heading over to the fish store soon for carbon and new food.
Was thinking brine shrimps.

I would like some suggestions.
I would like to add some more fish
a wrasse that can eat the worms in my tank would be ideal.
Anemones are something I want to add aswell any advice on which type/ if I should add them.
dart fish or other fish might help fill the tank aswell.
If you have fish suggestions lmk!!!

This fish the chalk bass is a cool little fish you may like that can be in your tank long term.

For a fish that eats pests it’s hard to say a fish that could fit your tank. It is a small tank and pest eating fish generally need bigger aquarium systems. I would recommend a cleaner shrimp to help with pests

before the anemone it looks like you are going to need to add new lights, powerheads and possibly an auto top off (ato) to the list of things to buy for the tank as you need higher light and flow for any host anemone as well as stable salinity from the auto top off.
Are you also using rodi water or know your city's tap water quality?

 

[M-anemone]

I use RODI water and top off salinity myself.
I agree the light is old.
The flow seems strong at the moment do you recommend two fans?

good, salinity is hard to top off consistently but can be done, there are cheap atos out there that help keep it more stable. The light looks a bit underpowered for the tank tbh.
Powerheads like jebao work well you should only need 1 but 2 will always be better, there are much better quality ones out there as well but the are more expensive

Correct. This hobby is really fun, but in order to correctly keep the animals we all love, you need a few things. This is what sadly puts off many as you need a few high end material to keep beautiful aquariums. Anemones aren’t recommended for the new aquarist, but if you have your heart set on one, make Sure to get all the things needed for the anemone. Do A LOT OF RESEARCH. Just a heads up, do not get an anemone for the first 6 months to a year of the aquarium set up. The water parameters won’t be set until that time passes. Patience is the absolute key as nothing good happens fast in the hobby. If you rush things, you will end up with a lot of problems.
