dont put anything in. you should wait 3-4 weeks before putting another fish in. this lets the decomposing and denitrifying bacteria catch up with the increased bioload. if you add too many fish at once, the tank could crash. jawfish are pretty docile. so blennies, gobies, clowns, and other...

i wouldnt put it in the sump unless abolutely necessary. i dont know much about them, but they might be able to eat the copepods. keep it in the 10 until you can sell it to a lfs. definitly dont put it in your dt. they eat corals, sponges, and anemones. do you have a qt? if so, then put it in...

please do!

for tang advice, i would only advise kole, spotted yellow eye, mimic eibli (amazing looking), tomini, and mimic lemonpeel. i dont think that a yellow tang belongs in a 75, but some people might disagree with me.

who else noticed that the pic that they say is of a perc is really an occelaris?

how bout a semi aggressive reef. it could have a frogfish, hawkfish, one of the little puffers, and a small eel. you wouldnt be able to have inverts, but it would be something different.

a lot of people even say that hermits dont really clean a lot. they just scavenge after other peoples foods. i dont have any. just lots of snails.
