adding saltwater fish

[Dono1990]

I currently have a 65 gallon tank and am curious if i would be able too add 2 fish at once instead of one. Or say one fish and say 5 hermit crabs. Reason asking is black friday sale out of town at a fish store.

They will be the first fish too be put into the tank.

Yes. Two small compatible fish, or one fish plus a small cleanup crew, should be fine. Which fish you should consider will depend on whether you've already cycled your tank or not.

Yes, you can do more than one fish, but the tank has to be cycled.

If not 100% on cycling, have your LFS verify your water. If it’s okay, then your good to go.
