All great numbers. You don’t mention how long the tank has been set up, if you used live or dry rock, nor a picture. Everyone will ask for those items as they respond

What is the age of your tank? Do you have coraline algae growing on the rocks? What are the beginner sticks that you do have?

Pc rainbow Oregon fort and a sc are not beginner frags imo, you should be able to get whatever you want and have luck if they look good.
