Hi everyone,
I've had my tank for about six and a half months now. I brought the tank in with live sand and live rocks so it cycled quite fast. Over the course of this time after cycling with about two weeks apart I brought in the following.
Pair of mated OC Clownfish who are super chills and doesn't like to bother nobody, but will sort of nibble if something sticks around a bit too long or close to their home which is a medium sized green bubble tip anemone that settled in a large shell where it's feet fit perfectly.
Two weeks after that I introduced 5 hermit crabs and a spotted sand sifting goby. I have 1.5-2 inch of sandbed.
Two weeks after that I brought in a cleaner shrimp 3 astrea snails and a coral beauty.
Two weeks after that I brought in a medium sized pj cardinal.
My tank has roughly 25-28lbs of Indo Based Live Rocks. It's 30G measuring 29/16/14.
I have a single wave maker, a canister filter for my carbon media and a bag of porous rocks for bacteria growth. Also have a Prizm Skimmer that's for 40G (my tank is 30). The skimmer also has a pouch of porous rocks for bacteria growth.
I have not experienced any spike in any of my water tests so far perhaps a slight drop in Ph but it's at 8.3 ish now.
I think I can handle more bioload. I wanted to get some suggestions on a non violent fish that swims around a bit actively. My clown fish are always at their anemone, the goby is usually on the ground and graze the rocks very short times. The coral beauty is a but active going around picking up algae. And the pj cardinal is just kind of stationary.
Wanted to get some suggestions because I want to get the fish in about a week.
Thank you all in advance!
