Looks like ich to me but luckily I have little experience with it. Do you have a test kit? If you don't trust the store, get a test kit before getting any more animals in the tank! Do you have anything moving the water? They may just be suffocating. How much live rock do you have? Did you cycle...

Is it stationary?

Definitely different sizes is better. They figure out who's the boss easier. Somebody has to be Tony Danza.

What are you feeding and how often? A large part of aggression is resource guarding.

If you weigh around 200lbs. Would you sit on this table for an extended period without it buckling or bowing? Because if you have it all set up and it finally gives you're going to have a lot of wasted money in dead livestock and carpet/flooring damage.

Welcome to the site! Sorry for your loss but you've gained a very entertaining and satisfying hobby! The best advice I can give about adding livestock is do your research. Knowing what will work in your tank will save a lot of heartache over a new addition dying or worse killing an old...

I'm super jealous! Inspired as well though.

Looks like some type of sponge to me. I have the same thing I believe. I'd say it's harmless.

A pic would maybe help?

How'd it go?

If you're planning on a reef tank that's a good idea. If you want an idea of tank size limits for fish I always check them out on LiveAquaria.com to see what they need. If they're all good with 90 gallons I'd say you're ok.

How long have you had this set up? If it hasn't cycled the the fish are doomed to die. If it came with some Damsels (I suspect that's what they are) I'd guess it's been cycled already. If those fish were all added gradually it should be ok. If they were all added at once you will have major...

What are your parameters? What kind of light do you have? Try gently placing it in another location. Massage the foot onto a rock until it sticks there. See if it's sticky or not when you handle it. Sticky means healthy.

My 110 sat for a week filled with a vinegar solution, then was thoroughly rinsed out. I've had it up for a year and fish are good! I would be more afraid of bleach than vinegar. I can drink vinegar and not die.

It depends on your setup really. If you want a lot of really interesting shapes and lots of nooks and caves and not just blocks of boulders it may be for you. I personally would get a bit of the cheaper live rock for the sump and get some dry rock for the display and make some interesting shapes...
