    Ok my 90 gal. has been up and running for three months now, with what I would concider a small to little cycle period. I added the raw shrimp two months ago and all the perms seem normal. What would be a great starter fish or inverts to get things going here?? Thanks

    if you have not already got your Clean Up Crew in there, snails and hermits are always a great start IME , if they are OK after a couple of weeks, then look at adding your 1st fish
    Damsels are hardy - but certain species can be a pain with subsequent introductions
    Clown fish are also hardy but stick with the more placid types- as a Tomato clown can also be a bad fish to have as tank boss IME
