    I would wait to add more fish,but if you add the ones you picked out imo you are maxed out for your tank.With 5 fish in that tank you will need a skimmer or 10-15% water change every week.the coral you bought is it xenia?

    is that a single rock? I really like the simplicity of it, from that angle at least. I went minimal on my rock to create more open space too. I could see some cool corals coming off the sides of that rock. Do you have a pic with a front view?

    I have I think 5 pieces. It is simple, here's a front view! (and it isn't this cloudy right now).
