Ready to add livestock?

[djm]

Ok, so I’ve cycled my Fluval Spec Marine 16gallon which has been running for about 6 weeks now

Ammonia is down to 0ppm and I did a large water change... approx 90% changed out.

this has brought my nitrate down to around 1ppm and nitrate to 50ppm. I was expecting a bigger reduction having changed out so much water.

Question is can I now add live stock with these numbers? I’m looking to add 2 clowns.

Provided it’s cycled, Just check your temperature and salinity and is looks like your good to go.

Your nitrates should be under 20 so I would do I water change again in a couple days but only like 10%

Temp is 25c and salinity is 1.024
