So tommorrow my order arives at the airport from.j&l.. Ill be getting my clean up crew package in, 1 percula clown 1 bangaii cardinal, a med/lrg green pearl bubble coral and a med/large pipe organ coral. I feel like this is still to much to be adding at once to a freshly cycled tank. But. To avoid paying stupid amounts of money to just order like 1 fish is un realistic as we dont have any supply for sw here at all. Should i be worried? Plan on testing like crazy amd have water prepared for water changes incase of spikes

I wouldn't be too worried. The coral and CUC don't add much to the bioload and the fish will probably be on the small side so I doubt you'll see much if any ammonia spike if your tank has fully cycled. Just don't over feed and do a weekly water change.

Im haveing a nitrite issue tho. I dont understand. My cycle finished and ammo and nitrite wer zerod amd about 20ppm nitrate. So i did a water change and brought it down to between 5-10ppm. And then next day i had a .25 trite reading. Zero ammonia still. In 24hrs that went back to zero. I did another 8-10gal water change last night and now i have between .25 and .50 nitrite again? Someone on fb told me its because when i do wc i end up stiring up crap in my live rock because the rock is dirty cuz i didnt have cuc in until today? Does that sound right?
