Re: I went big
You can add some easy corals a couple weeks after your tank is done cycling. Stuff like zoanthids, mushrooms, leathers and xenia.

Re: I went big
No,you don't have to wait that long.You can start with zoos and mushrooms as long as the cycle is complete.Maybe in a month then try other soft corals.Then try LPS corals a month later.Wait six months for SPS corals and clams and 8-12 months for anemones at least.

Re: I went big
you have had good advice. Try not to mix soft corals, like leathers, with SPS corals. If you are wanting to to SPS, add a mushroom rock and a cool set of Zoas and then hold out for LPS corals. Then wait about 6 months after that to add the SPS you wanted

Re: I went big
Keep a close eye on salinty if you add clip-on fans to tank. The fan will increase evaporation.
