Whoa ...slow down. First cycle the tank, when ammonia and nitrites go to 0 do a 10% water change and test the levels again. If the levels are OK you can add a clean up crew (snails, hermits etc.) If they're doing well after about 2 weeks you can add fish. In a 20 gallon no more than 3 small fish. Clowns and gobys are good candidates. Go slow, and good luck!
