Hey!
I'm 6 weeks into my first tank - it's a 5 gallon (I know, I've heard) and we believe everything has properly cycled, and our LFS confirmed our test results to make sure the introduction of our first fish wasn't completely crazy!
We're 4 days in with our green chromis (we know we'll have to re-home him as he grows - he's coming to my office tank this fall, which will be my second tank) and he's active, eating and doesn't seem stressed or anything. Water parameters are stable!
So assuming we don't have any major issues before the weekend, my next chance to get to the LFS, would we be safe to add our first coral? How do we know?
We currently test salinity, ammonia, nitrite, nitrate and PH.
Thanks in advance!
