I've just set up a 20 gallon reef aquarium; it was cycling for 2 weeks, yesterday I removed the crushed coral and replaced it with sand, and today I put in 4 fish: a true percula, lawnmower blenny, neon blue goby, and a six line wrasse. I've had a banded shrimp and 2 red hermit crabs in there for a day as well. I want to get a bulb-tipped anemone from a site online, but I'm not sure if I should wait to let the tank settle down and establish itself more before I do. What do you think?
Also, I currently have a whisper filter, but once my magic mud comes in I'm going to replace it with a ecosystem40 setup. My question is, how much algea will I get? I have my light on 6 hours a day and the tank gets some direct sunlight in the morning for maybe an hour. Will it be enough to support the lawnmower? If not, what should I feed it? What I feed my fish now is frozen mysis shrimp and Spirulina flakes, will that support everything in my tank?
Also...if I end up getting that anemone, how do I feed it? And how often? And I guess I'll throw this in: what do I feed it?
