Hey Folks, I'm setting up a little 10 gallon (picture shown). Its a freshwater right now with 2 glass fish in it. I will be moving the glass fish to my new 55 gallon for when I set up my Tanganyika Cichlid tank. So far I have:

10 gallon tank
AquaC Remora Nano w/ Maxi-jet 900
Substrate (leftover carib sea eco complete cichlid sand)
Hydrometer

I plan to get at least 10-15 #'s live rock
Penguin filter w/ 2 bio wheel
a small powerhead
I may just buy the RO/DI saltwater already mixed from my local fish store b/c it's 10 gallon

I want to have at least 1 clownfish
I need to know what other fish/inverts are a good combo. so I can start researching.

Is it better to cycle the tank with just inverts?

Thanks for reading
