    mandarin

    those are animals that aren't very sucessful in any tanks. They need well established tanks that are full of copepods. I would return the animal and buy a goby. You don't want to see such a beautiful animal like a madarin dragonette die due to the fact that you didn't have enough live rock to...

    im confused with my stocking levels

    My adive to you would be to immedialty remove some of the fish. It is a matter of time before nitrates and nitrites spike, due to all the waste in your water being produced by the extreme quantity of fish. Also it is a cruelty issue, and you all most show some restraint when at your local fish...

    What's a proper water change schedule?

    I change 10% or five gallons out of tank every month and this seems to be keeping my ammonia nitrites and nitrates around 0 ppm. make sure that you religiously do your water chages.
