Ok so I started my first marine tank about 8 weeks ago now. Started with 9kg fully cured LR, V2 120 skimmer, standard pumps, nano powerhead, rowaphos, carbon and heater.

Chamber 2 soon to be replaced with LR rubble.
Bought ready mixed SW from LFS and added it to the tank. Then 4 weeks later I added my first livestock:
2 common clowns

A week later I added my CUC. 3 hermit crabs and 2 snails.
2 weeks later I added my yellow watchman goby who spends all his time under a rock hehe!

Not adding anymore fish now only coral. Maybe will add one more fish in a few months depending on how my tank is going but I think 4 fish is a good number for a small tank with lots of coral I hope. Any suggestions on other coral I can add next remembering that my tank is white a new setup.
Water params:
