Took my water to the LFS after a month of home water tests. They said the amonia and nitrates were gone. I added a Royal Gramma basslet, a cleaner shrimp, pulsating xenia, brown star polyp, 10 snails and 10 hermits to a 55g that has 6 chromis'.

Looks good your also off to a good start but stock it slow so the bacteria can keep up if ya go fast the tank can crash... I think a good rule of thumb is no more than 3 fish a week... Corals don't matter as much you can stock them accordingly..

wait just a bit longer before you put expansive corals in there. you are still going to get an algae bloom. Its unavoidable and some corals may be sensitive.

great job though and good luck
