Sorry for not updating so long, I was in vacation. My tank length was 21 inches; I felt it will be difficult to fix “2ft T5 ho Light” fixture in my tank. If I purchase metal halide, what should be the wattage of bulb needed for my tank?
Tank size -21”x 12”x23” inches L X W XH [25 GALLON]

Hi,
Today I have tested my reef tank water shows following results Ph-8.2, Nitrite-0.25ppm, Nitrate-0.00ppm, Ammonia-0.00pm.My biological filtration not in operational state since I didn’t add Cheatomorpha in refujium tank. It is difficult source chatemorpha in India, iam trying with sister to source chaetomorpha who is a microbiologist. I added pair blue fish in tank today; truly don’t know the species name. All your suggestion is welcome

Those are damsels.

Did you look into the cycling process yet? It's quite a lengthy process to build healthy bacteria populations in your tank before you add critters.

If you were able to put most live rock/sand in the tank then the cycle process should be quick or none.

Cycling with damsels is frowned upon since it will result in the damsels death.

Here is a great Textbook explanation of the bacteria cycle.
You will completely understand after you watch this: :)
