It should take about 30 days from the start, but tons of stuff can affect that timing. The ammonia spike followed by nitrites then nitrates, show the system is processing waste products. (I think I got that in the right order, long day)

So, you don't have any plans on a fifth fish? As for mushrooms, I would go with liveaquaria. I would probably go with them for almost anything anyway, LOL.

Ok, just keep in mind, I added a Royal Gramma to a tank with a Sixline and they wanted to kill eachother! I have seen plenty of tanks, though, will both in it. Maybe it was because my Wrasse was added first.

Wrasses are also known jumpers. Other than a 6 line i don't think 20g is big enough for a wrasse.
