Try to stay away from the mandarin.
Hard to feed and needs an extremely mature tank.
Cleaner wrasse are super cool fish but unless you have large angels or tangs I wouldn't bother IMHO.
Plus they love to jump.
Others should be fine.
Butterfly is great fish but fussy until acclimated and needs to be quarantined.
Again just my opinion.
Good morning Amanda!

What if I did some Anthias instead of those two? I have read they are peaceful and do well with others like them? I do plan on a tang or two but they will be last ones to go into to the tank.

Question family, should I heat the water to 78° before mixing the salt or after?

I keep mine heated I feel like the salt mixed better but that might just be my imagination.

 

[Calmwaters]

Plus I like it to be close to the same temp as the DT when do a water change.

Going to head to a new reef store about an hour from my house that I have never been to since we don't have church tonight. They specialize in saltwater so I'm excited!

 

[luis angel]

Another question lol, is this enough to move the water or should I do it manually
