Is It Ready ?

[littlefish]

Hey guys.

Still here, loving my tank.
My corals have all grown a great deal. The clam and invertebrates are all doing fine.
The AquaJR controller, calcium reactor, and everything else are on the go.
After 7 weeks, I think I'm ready to add a fish.
Question: A Copperband will go after my clam or any other coral?
I think I've learned from my mistake of populating my tank so fast.

Thanks to all of you who have helped me and encourage me to keep on going.

a copperband is not a good 1st fish choice by any means. they require excellent water conditions.
it may pick on corals n clams although many had success with them behaving.
a greater concern is getting them to eat. Most I've seen r very skinny n long term successes r few.

7 weeks already!!! Any way, I would list the fish I intend to keep. Then I would start with the gentles's (least territorial) finishing with the meanest of the bunch.
I know nothing about copperband butterfly, except that to the best of my knowledge all butterfly tend to go for corals.

Is hasn't been 7 weeks since you posted this thread:

When ???

At that time, you still had a clownfish in the tank. Is that still the case? As I stated in that thread, start counting the weeks when the tank is empty of all fish.

Clown Fish

I never got the Clown out. It was impossible.

Then you've just answered your own question. It will be impossible to know if your tank is parasite free.

come on alfredo we thought u were better then this.... :sigh:... as previously stated im going to reiterate what so many people have said, take all the fish out and then you can wait ur 6,7, or even 8 weeks and then you should be good.... just quarantine ur fish before you introduce any new fish into the tank....

do the work now instead of having another headache later ....
