hello again... i've been reading a lot on everything about saltwater tank keeping and cycling and all that stuff. i saw on one paper that i printed that i can cycle a tank with fish. i'm already cycling with live rock and live sand but can i also add fish in about a week???

Damsels are not a great choice unless you only want to keep damsels....they are aggressive, territorial and mean and will harass to the point of death anything else that you try to put in with them........that is unless this is what you want.
