yea definately. i started my cycle about 6 weeks ago. so its only 2 weeks after my cycle. ive speant a lot. i plan to get one more fish, probably a lawnmower blenny or a bi color blenny. bak pak 2 skimmer probably will be next. going to get a ton more corals after that. funds are low right now when i get paid on the 4th i am probably going to get some zoo's. in a month or two i am going to get an anenome, just not sure what kind yet

Looks like another good looking 20g in the making. Keep up the work. Love to see people with a 20g tank

looks good though I think 2 clowns should be your max - easier to keep water quality in check!

you a going through another mini-cycle because you added such a large bioload all at once (two clowns in a 20). I would think your numbers wil lstay in check BUT you may have some of the traditional algea cycle outbreaks - try a couple of well prepared water changes and siphon out the diatomes, etc. during the change.
Good luck - this too shall pass!

you should reaaaaaaly slow down. now is the hardest time to keep yourself from puutting lots of stuff in ur new tank, but its also the easiest time to mess everything up. wait a little till u r a bit more established and then u wont have to worry about mini-cycles or ammonia spikes from addig 2 fishes and a coral.
looking very nice for only 2 months.
btw i heard a fighting conch is better then a queen. i dont know y, thats just what i heard.
good luck and keep us posted

almost everything ive added is in my cleanup crew...
the only thing ive added that needs food is a flame scallop and the clowns, everything else eats the left overs from the fish or algae. i wont be adding anything more that requires food for a while.
but youre right, which is why i will not be adding anything except a bak pak 2 skimmer when i get paid on the 4th
