Question While we're on the subject of stocking (and I wait...)

So we've established that an anemone isn't going to work for now and I'm in a holding pattern letting things settle and the skimmer break in. I also removed the stupid "polishing pad" fine filter from the canister as it decimated my copepods. My damsels have been bored with nothing to chase!

I'm wondering if anyone has suggestions of next steps- ideally I'd like to add at least 1-2 more small fish, an SPS coral or two, and an anemone at some point but I'm being more patient this time and trying to avoid overstocking. Even that sounds pretty crowded...
Tho the damsels are a little passe and all I've grown attached to those tough little guys- so I don't think I'll be removing anything from the current setup.

Second part- after reading recent posts I plan to drop in a pair of 200Gph+ powerheads with spray bars pointed up, remove the little one I have. More flow, etc. I haven't quite figured out how to cram *those* in too, the back of the tank is starting to look industrial already

See sig for details.

TIA
