Welcome to the party!

quick question Is 4 chromis and 1 clownfish too much for a 20 gallon tank? I got chaeto and a protein skimmer. I also got a hang on filter with some phosphate and nitrate removing sheets

 

[PokeFish]

also surface skimmer

yep. one next to it is a japenese toadstool. But you can only see part of its poly. I can take a picture of it if u wanna see

 

[PokeFish]

Also wanna ask something. I kind of started the tank off wrong (not doing enough research) I kind of want to start over with new knowledge. Im not gonna stop the tank. I was going to start a new tank (pico) and put it next to my desk so I can watch it. Should I do it? I have everything just not the tank. Or should I focus on my main tank first.

Focus on your current tank. When you get experienced and have enough coral you can frag ur corals to pay for a nano tank. I wouldn’t do pico unless you really know what you are doing

thank you : )

Also invest in a used ato or something
I could send you one if you buy a shipping label. All u need for it is a pump and tubing

how much is the label? Could I diy one?

Not sure how much it would be to ship. You can diy it if you know what you are doing in fact that’s what I’ll do for my next one!
Look up reefdudes diy ato. He has the best one on it. It will automatically replenish evaporated rodi water
