Are you adding fish with nitrite or ammonia above 0? I usually like to see what I buy, but the LFS doesn't always have what I want. Be prepared to feed those anthias - they need it quite a bit. Too much for my tank....

nitrites are coming down not that high right now they are about 18 or 20 about 5 days ago when i tested it ,,the lfs i go to always has alot to choos from and there are 2 of them so i know they will have what i want ,,getting ready to do a 15 gallon water change in the next day the nit will come down ,,,

Make sure you give your system time to stabalize, I know how hard it is to wait, but it is worth it in the end.
