    you need to remenber that 8g does not leave much room for swings in your water paremiters,temps and so forth, I would suggest also that you keep up the reserch into what you might like in your tank , go down to your lfs and just look, ask a few questions and take some notes, dont rush into anythink after you have a look around get online and look for info on what you want to keep. dont just take the opinion of the first person you talk too,

    oh PS welcome to the 3reef.........remember your not alone
