Current tank is: 29g, 25 lbs l/r, crushed coral as substrate, undergravel filter, 15 watt fourescent <img src="graemlins//uhuh.gif" border="0" alt="[U-Huh]" /> <img src="graemlins//eek.gif" border="0" alt="[eek]" /> skilter 250, 3 dominos.
This is what we were sold at our lfs. We were totally ignorant to what we were getting. A very subpar system. We now are going to a not so lfs and are pulling out our undergravel filter and putting in a sand filter, and we are getting (Thursday) a power compact 2/55watt lighting. Any question, comments, AMENS appreciated. :p We are getting a purple firefish, cherub angel, neon goby and perc clown to replace the 3 dominos (which are going back to the lfs). Thanks for all your info, I have learned alot! :D By the way, the tank is a little over 6 weeks old. All readings are perfect so far.

only suggestion is to not add all those fish at the same time. other than that good luck. atleast it was a cheap lesson to learn. :)

yep, add slowly, and i would wait a few months on the angel too
and after making the changes, i would also give it a few weeks to be sure you don't go into anohter cycle, after removing and replacing everything like that, before i got any other fish
