I have a 50gal Hex tank with currently
2 Damsels (1 of which is going to be gone as soon as I can catch him, Adult Bluefin, the other is timid around other fish and really pretty)
6line Wrasse
3 Hermit Crabs (I know I am getting some more ASAP)
Lettuce Nudi (Know he is actually a slug and have watched him eating algae)
2 Cleaner Shrimp
Decorator Crab (I know will have to go when I add LR)
I am wondering what I will need (I.E. equipment, supplaments etc.) and should know before I get myself into this. I do not want to kill any of my current tank's inhabitants as the tank has been going for about a year and a half now. There is about 15-20lbs LS and just display rocks as of now. I also have a hanging filter as mine is not built in, but the Bio Filter is established.
I was thinking I may just go with some feather dusters and an annenome (1) as I know they will kill eachother in my tank. This would be soley due to cost and my ability to afford it. (I know I will be spending a good amount of $$$)
I have not been running a heater in the water as it has stayed at 78deg steady since I set it up and the hydrometer reads at 1.0223(I looked up the conversion table as I know they are not accurate ot that water temp calibrated at 60deg. here is that site! http://www.algone.com/salinity.php), the PH is 8.2 all other tests are right on.
So all in all I am wondering what equipment and chemicals I will be needing and what else I could put in there as soon as I rid myself of the devil-damsel.
Thanks for all and any help, I will post pics as soon as I can get them off my phone! (24 to 48 hours)
