In the tank, there is 200 pounds of live sand, 150 pounds live rock, 15 damsels, 1 niger triger 3", 1 clown trigger 3", one blue jaw trigger 2.5", one snowflake eel, one blue hippo tang 3", one yellow tang 3", one black tank 3", a few crabs and snails.

Are the fish listed above the fish you cycled with? That's a lot of fish for cycling.

i think you should take back the damsel. ask your dealer if it is ick. if you think it is use ick fizz by tank buddies, i think that is avalible for sw fish. i wouldnt use it with inverts though...
