So I currently only have a pair of clownfish in my tank right now. I am looking this weekend to purchase my clean up crew and looking for suggestions.

Along with the cleanup crew will I be able to get any fish or coral? Or will this be too much of a bioload at once. Thank you in advance!

You’ll be fine. Just don’t add a million things at once. :)
 
Plenty o space in a 40 breeder for goodies with patience, stability, and lighting. Just take your time and slowly build.

Tank looks awesome btw. Do you have any suggestions on what kind of clean up crew I should start with. Plan to add a couple frags and a fish at same time. Possible?
 
Thank you. That was in between my move to new place. So that was everything out of my 80 in the 40b holding tank till settled in. Was there about a month or so while made the move and not a single loss. As long as the bio filter is up to par and can handle the load without a spike of nutrients, you’ll be good to go. Coral does produce a bio load, but very minimal. I rarely add a single frag at a time so no worries there. Single fish or pairs of fish at a time should be no worry, again, as long as the filter is stable and ready for the additions.
How old is the tank? What type of coral looking to add? We love pics! Lol

The tank is a few weeks old. And honestly not sure I love the look of all of them. I like mushroom, hammer coral, frogspawn, bubble tip is a list of probably my favourite. Would love to hear some suggestions on what I should start with.
