I finally have a stable and clear tank after a 8-month bout with Dino and a 3-month bout with an algae bloom. It's finally clear!! I have one platinum clown that has made it through everything and that is it in my tank. My question is do i add fish first now or coral?
 
that's nice :) , got any phosfate and nitrate in your tank ?
If so then you can start with coral and fish.
if you don't then i would start with fish first and when you can mesure the nitr/phos then add coral as well

I do have both N03 and PO3 in the tank at a stable level for a week to about a week and a half. So you're right maybe just a few fish to start with.

Congrats!!! Now move in here and do the same thing in my tank.
 
I wish I could help with this cause I know it's a battle for sure. I can tell you that I did everything that was suggested in here and online from blackouts, raising Phosphates and Nitrates, removing and scrubbing rocks, I even tried overdosing Dino X nothing worked. I put some micro bacter 7 in there also while I did blackouts and while I did Dino X. Finally I gave up and just left it for about 6 months. It eventually took care of itself. Then an algae bloom came and I put in a green killing machine then everything became clear.
