    Check out a possum wrasse! Small, active, and reef safe. I've been wanting to get one in my nano for a while now, but no one ever has one around here and I haven't plunged into online ordering yet.

    I'd say jumpstart your cycle 1 more time! fish food or a raw shrimp, or just ammonia, or a small cuc and then do your 2 clowns after the small spike! should be good! have a water change ready just in case that spike gets a little high!

    A person is a success if they get up in the morning and gets to bed at night and in between does what he wants to do.

    wrong,

    clowns are related to damsels, some of the most aggressive fish in this hobby, what makes you think a clown is only aggressive when spawning?
    imagine an extremely aggressive clownfish, now imagine hes twice the size and thats pretty much what a saddleback is.
