    Hammer coral are and easy coral to keep but seeing how many coral you have in there already and how many fish you have and how young your tank is I would recommend slowing down a bit for a few months and let your bioload catch up to all the new additions because if you go to fast you might crash.

    I didn't read about your clean up crew maybe invest in some hermits/snail/starfish.

    Do your research! :) That's probably the most important thing with all coral/livestock one may want to keep in their tank.

    I do agree with Scott on this though. You should slow down a bit.

    I think in OP he said he has two stars in the tank, some hermits. Not sure about snails.

    Since you have some live rock, now would be a good time to add a bit more base rock.
