Nitrite hit around 4/21/09. Should be done cycling now! A lot of people like to wait until the tank is more "established", around 6 months to a year. Then they add corals and such. You could start out with a few easy ones like mushrooms or xenia and see how those go. Get a test kit for mag and alk.

Wow! all of a sudden your tank looks all grown up!
Looks great! I just saw your post today, How old was your tank when you got the coral and anomone?
I really want to get an anomone and a clown but I dont want to get them if my tanks not ready. Dont know if I should wait and get the two at the same time.
Did you have to get a calcium reactor and other extra equipment for the corals?
Looks Good!
