Hi again,

I have alot of questions! Any help/comments would be appreciated!
My tank is a 75 gallon hexagon. It has been setup for almost 2 months. I have had 2 blue-yellow tail damsels(small) in there for about a month. I added a scooter blenny 1 week ago. I have had snails and hermits for about 1 month also. Lots of base rock already turning to live rock!, 30 pounds live sand, 10 pounds live rock. I have standard lighting, a fluval filter, a 150 jebo protein skimmer. I have been fortunate so far, and would like to keep it that way. I am new to the swf also! my questions are: :notsure:
1. I want to place an order with swf.com that includes copepods, 1 fighting conk, 2 percula clowns (aquacultered), 10 turbo snails, 10 nassarius snails, 1 cleaner clam, 5 pepermint shrimp or 5 cleaner shrimp, and 10 jade hermits. Is this all ok for my tank at once?
2. Does anyone know of a EASY beginner anenome or coral that the clowns might like, and that don't need special lighting?
3. Are these good choices for a beginner/my tank/newly started?
Any answers would be great, even if you don't want to answer all! Thanks in advance!!

1. it will be fine to add all at once and seems like a good clean up crew...
2. anemones do need light, and standard lighting will not support them...
3. seems like a pretty easily maintainable livestock list... you might want to get rid of the yellow tails... they get quite terretorial...

1. ok I'm glad to hear that, I was concerned it would be an over load on my systme, and cause a bad spike
2.Do you know if any corals would fit these conditions if any anenomes won't?
3. I was thinking about trying them with the clowns, and if they were means, then taking them to mylfs, good plan, or should I just go ahead and do it. They are still pretty young and small.

Standard lighting, I guess is just what came with the tank setup. Yes, florecent tubes.
Thanks for the examples, so will those corals do well with that type of lighting, and do you know if they are fairly easy to maintain in a new tnak? :notsure:

The standard lighting you have are not good with any type of corals. Invest in an Orbit Power Compact lighting or better such as VHO's Metal halides, t-5s ....
