I started my tank 12/4/2020

Since it's been running I've had mixed success and fails

My tank is currently stable I've managed to reduce my nitrates from 40ppm to 0 all other conditions stable
Temp 24°c

My failure so far have been
Lost 2 shrimp (cleaner & fireshrimp)
Lost 2 clown fish (1 a day after buying)
And the other after about 2 months of having him

All of my gsp stoped coming out after I stuck it to the glass (I can only assume the anemones were blocking light as I've moved it and it's recovering well)

My trumpet got brown jelly and I failed to notice it's mostly bone except the centres which are red/green which is a good sign

My question to you is what should I stock it with I'm fairly new to saltwater and I've blown about £100 on failures so far and my tank looks pretty empty
