Hello, as stated this is my first ever aquarium and I am loving learning everyday. I started with a fishless cycle for a month until my ammonia, nitrite and nitrate all tested to zeros. I used Seachem tests but have since switched to Salifert. I had a diatom bloom fairly heavy and i then added my cleanup crew. Two weeks after the cleanup crew, I added a purple fire goby. Two weeks after that i added frostbite clownfish.
Not sure about when or if i will add another fish.
Maybe some suggestions on fish and whether I have enough clean-up crew and filtration would be very helpful!
Setup
-Fluval evo 13.5
-hydor koralia nano 240
-hydor theo 50 watt heater
-inkbird temperature controller
-custom cooling fan setup in lid
-stock lighting
-stock pump
-diy media basket in chamber 1
Filtration
-filter floss top of chamber 1
-stock biomax cylinders top sponge slot
-chemipure blue bottom sponge slot
-10 pounds caribsea life rock
-10 pounds caribsea aragonite
Livestock
-purple fire goby
-frostbite clownfish
-emerald crab
-polka dot hermit crab
-scarlet hermit crab
-3x trochus snails
I Will be changing to an A. I prime light as i hear they work well. I am open to any suggestions!!
Future I wish to add an automatic top off.

Thanks in advance!!
Hope you enjoy!!
