Next steps?

[lsumon]

Greetings. I’ve a little evo that is my second salt water tank. My first was an even smaller bio cube. This tank has been up around 8 m It contains 3 clowns a goby an emerald crab and various snails and hermit crabs. It seems to be doing generally well. I would like to add a coral or anemone. Are there any suggestions on what or even if I should try one?

You should be fine to add either/both. I might start with one bubbletip anemone and see how that goes (color is really personal preference). In terms of corals, I would suggest initially sticking to some soft corals (zoas, xenias) as they're bit more forgiving before progressing into LPS and possibly SPS. Also note that captive bred clownfish don't initially know what to do with anemones, so they make take a while to home them.

Thank you for your suggestions. I want to start with something easy that I can feel like I’m doing right by. I’m super new to the hobby and just want to start slow.
