If your parameters are still Ammonia: 0, Nitrite: 0 and Nitrate:0, I would say you're okay to go ahead and add your clean up crew. Get some snails, crabs, conch and you're ready to go!

So Ive added a cleaning crew. (5 snails 10 hermits and a nassarius)
and a damsel that Im returning to my LFS as soon as I have enough money for some corals and what not. Named the damsel Kobe because he happens to be purple and yellow like the Lakers and Kobe is REDICULOUS!!!
So PICTURE TIME!!!

ummm if id have to take a guess id say probly 20 inches. all i know is that it is a 15 tall. so im thinking its just a really tall 10 gallon long. and the damsel is going back to the fish store when I pick up my other fish. Its like a lease fish so i dont get bored while ill wait for the $$$.

Got some more questions. So hopefully some answers would be nice.
So feeding time is worrying me. I break up my flakes and get ready to put them into the tank. As soon as I pour in the flakes, my slightly bigger clown just starts mad doggin the other clown. So like the other clown has to nearly race for food against the slightly bigger one. Is this a problem? I want everyone in my tank to be happy
. Also my little one shakes radidly for like a second every now and then. That bad?

The shaking is probally the smaller fish showing your larger one he knows whos boss. Seriously, this is the same thing as your dog rolling on to its back so giving its stomach up to you

Hey! its been a while but ive saved up enough to purchase some more FISH!!!
So I cant get pictures up right now so maybe in a few days but this is what I picked up yesterday.
-A very small dwarf coral beauty (the tank is small I know but it came from a friend of mine in a 20 gallon and informed me of the fact that she is happy as long as you feed her once a day to keep from boredom)
-A fire shrimp
-A Sally Lightfoot
-A frag of green star polyps
-A frag of green zoos
Im extremely happy with what is going in the tank so far and am looking forward to adding more corals. I also thought my shrimp might have died but turn out to be a molt
