First off - I want to say hello as I'm new to the board.
I just acquired an Oceanic 135 gallon tank today. I've been out of the hobby for about 5 or 6 years so I have a few questions. I'm thinking of purchasing the CPR CR1000 Wet/Dry Filter for the aquarium. In addition I already have a fairly large Eheim cannister filter that I planned on using for some mechanical filtration. I'm going to keep a fairly non-aggressive/non-photosynthetic fish/invert tank and plan on doing all fairly small fish. I was thinking of cycling the tank with 6 sm. blue chromis, 3 sm. yellow tangs, and 3 small percula clowns. Do you think that is too much fish to cycle and do you think these species are all hardy enough to handle the cycling? Many thanks - I'm sure my questions will grow as time progresses.
