Hi All,

So I have a 150G FOWLR tank that currently has a small picasso trigger and porcupine puffer. The tank has gone through the cycling process, and since getting the trigger and porcupine (5/17) my parameters have been very stable, showing no Ammonia, no nitrites and 20ppm nitrates.

My next two fish I will be getting are a snowflake eel and a volitans lionfish, my plan was to add the snowflake eel and then the lionfish.

My two questions are:

Is my tank ready for another fish to be introduced?
Can I add both the eel and lionfish at one time, or give the tank a few weeks in between each to catch up.

Thanks!

Of course I have room for 1 more fish!

You will be fine adding them at the same time. Give a week or 2 after that for any new additions.
