maybe good hoodless, get a 70w jbj k2 viper metal halide light w/ astrolux or phoenix 14,000k bulb, a CPR aquatics aquafuge hang on back fuge to have a better place to grow pods for what looks like a banded pipefish in that tank.

you can pick that light up used for around ~$75.
umm I think an aquaclear 70 or maybe a 110 fits on the back and use a different impeller to reduce flow then run a fuge out of that... you can pick these up used for cheap.

I agree with rotarymagic. zoas, rics and paly's.... daisy's are awesome too.
You just have to be patient with reefs. Nothing can grow as quick as we want to in this hobby!

You shouldnt have gotten a mandarin. They live solely off of pods, he will slowly starve to death. Give it 3 months, and it will look like a skeleton. Especially since you have a banded pipe fish. They are all competing for the same food. You need to do more research befor you buy fish. Any body would have told you not to get a mandarin.
You have too many fish in a 14g tank. SW is basically, 1 inch per 5 gallons. With the damsel and pipefish, you allready have too many inches. Not to hate on you, just looking out for the fish
