Welcome! Iv had fresh water fish all my life and got into keeping a reef tank about a year ago. I got on WAMAS almost immediately and it was a fantastic decision. The membership fee is a drop in the bucket for the general information, help with tank set ups and takedowns, coral frags sales, the group meetings, and peace of mind that there's a community of like minded hobbyists just a click away. I think if you stick around you'll be very happy. As for live stock in your tank. A school of blue or green cromies would be nice. They are fairly hardy and looks nice darting around the tank.
