I've had my tank setup since Jan 1st. I have 3 pieces of live rock, live sand in it, and I'm thinking its cycled by now. Its a 25 gallon eclipse with the eclipse filtration including a normal charcoal filter, and a biowheel. Ontop of that, i've added a canister that currently has bio material in it for bacteria to do their work, and a second tray that has a big bag of charcoal, and a phosphate bag in it. I may end up putting another bag in it to get the silicates out of the water as I had a little bit of a brown algae problem for a short bit there........I'm not interested in keeping live corals, so I have fake stuff going on in the tank, including a fake anemone awaiting some clowns.
I have 4 damsels in there so far, 2 blue, 1 blue/yellow, and a yellow. I was wanting to eventually have a few clowns, and like a yellow tang, that sort of thing. I want low maintenance, and fish that aren't going to die if i'm pretty careful about salt levels, keeping filters changed, etc.
I want to introduce the fish slowly so that they dont die, so right now i'm ready for some clowns. Now i've read that if you introduce them at the same time they dont have to be mated, is this true? Secondly what breeds would you recommend, and #'s of each going off of what I've said so far? I did read that a tang is agressive, is this correct? Got a pic below of my tank so you all have an idea of everything.
