Hello, I really enjoy all the discussions on the board and have learned tons of helpful things here.
I have a 20G tall tank that just completed its cycle. 5 weeks and my levels are all good.
Nitrates-10
Nitrites-0
Ammonia-0
Salinity-1.023
PH 8.8
These levels have been consistant for a little over a week now. So Im ready to introduce my cleaning crew and fish. I do not have a lot of algea growing as yet so my crew wont be very large.
I wanted to know if there is anything else i can introduce besides fish and cleaning crew right now?
coral, feather dusters, ect?
tank info:
20g T
15lbs LR
20lbs LS
biowheel
protein skimmer
heater
power head- 212 gph
I am awaiting on my Coralife Aqualight, Dual Linear Strip Light, 2X65W, 24 inch lighting. should be in by next wednesday.
Any suggestions for a newby?

Your ph is high... might want to get some buffer to bring it down to 8.2. Feather dusters are pretty easy to keep. You may want to wait on corals til you get your lights. Mushrooms would probably do ok. Just go slow...
