I am in the RESEARCH phase of a saltwater tank. One thing I haven't come across in reading my books (yes I bought saltwater aquariums for Dummies) is stocking rules when there are anemones or corals in the tank. These are living organisms so they have to put off waste right? I have read that in the beginning of a sw tank there should be one fish for every 4 gallons, is this correct? How do I account for invertabrates and how much space they need so I don't overload the bio-filter? I keep Discus now, so I understand the importance of not overloading the tank. I plan to use a 30 gallon that I have sitting around for my first saltwater experience. -
How many pounds of live rock is good for a 30?
I want to add inverts later after the fish because they are harder to take care of and I want to get my fish settled in, is it ok to add anenomes after the fact?
Thanks in advance
