Flower nem. An easier nem as far as lighting requirements. Orbit marine leds is what i use now

Clams on the shell r good for the beak. Aswell as raw shrimp

How big is this card bc a few of your fish will take it as a meal. The ph is intresting, i never check mine mind you but if your salt is the same your ph should be an issue.

Agree on chromis. Possibly a possum wrasse

Yes you can add some rock from the existing tank. Now your saying your ammonia is high? Thats good but dont add any fish until its finished cycling. How many fish are u transferring?

Good fully cured live rock will help with the cycle yes

Agreed. Honestly the clowns are damsels. You also run the risk of adding disease to the tank

Yes, but there are no guarantees with sw. What fish are you thinking about

I use red sea. It just seems cleaner to me. After its mixed i don't get the residue i would with instant. That said my fish did fine with instant. Nems need high end lights. If its something you really want, look into kessil leds. There not cheap but very good

Agreed with above. Avoid coralife products. There not made anymore its all over stock. You don't need a skimmer for fowlr. None of my tanks have one. I am looking at one now tho bc i upgraded a tank and may try coral.

Instant ocean is really popular. I like and use red sea salt. Not familiar with natures ocean

Agreed

Really u don't want to disturb the sand. Sw and fw tanks are totally different. Generally in sw if you have high nitrates its not terribly hard to fix. Macro alage will feed off your nitrates. Remove "trim" your macro and u in turn remove nitrates. When using r o water its pure water. Sand...

Fill it get your salinity on point. Add your sand and live rock. Then add a raw cocktail shrimp. Leave in about 24hrs, this will start the cycle then ghost feed to maintain it

Try a hob filter instead of a canister. Skimmer isn't needed if you just want fowlr. You will need a good heater. I suggest a refractometer over a hydrometer. Also sand over crushed coral.

For top off tho you do want fw, to compensate evaporation

I was just gona say that lol. For tropical fish like most tanks we keep , yes its a bad idea. But for you and local native fish i would think its fine. Aslong as its a clean area your getting it from

I like eheim heaters myself. Warning signs not many
