welcome to the group.
jhouse I'm not sure what you have in mind for your tank but you will find your damsels will become a huge pita before long your domino will be the worst,very seldom do they remain "good fish"or model citizens.As for the bristle worm leave him he's a good thing to have (clean up waste)I wanted to get rid of mine awhile ago and everyone said leave them it's a sign of a health tank,just make sure it's a bristle worm and not a fire worm.
Any questions fire away and we'll be glad to help
 
Check the newbie thread, frankandmaura just posted stuff he has and there all good starter corals. Frank is a good guy and will help you out with the info as well if you decide to get some from him as caution should be taken on some of them as far as growth.
 
Yes...I have some good softy corals...

Green Star Polyp - it is a nice bright green and will look like a carpet where ever you put it in the tank. The thing to be careful of is - it will take over your tank...so, what I did was separate it on its own rock. The issue with this is, it continues to grow so it will just start making these arms that want to grab on to something nearby and start growing in a new spot. Some people want it to grow on their glass...would make a nice background.

Kenya Tree - kinda pink color...softy coral that looks...well, like a tree. The negative side is it grows quickly and "throws" buds off and next thing you know, there are little kenya trees growin in other places in the tank. Not a bad thing, necessarily...you just have to remove them if you don't want them there...

Toadstool Leather - again a pinkish color...but looks like a big mushroom. Mine is HUGE!! Grows quickly and looks pretty cool. No real negative here...other than it can get pretty big. I am not sure how big it would get in a smaller tank though...I would imagine, like most stuff, it grows to its surroundings. I have a 125 gal tank...so it has room to grow.

Please let me know if you would like to stop by and see the tank and take some pieces of stuff home.

I agree with Mickela, the damsels will not be welcomed in a tank that size. They are (especially the Dominos) are very territorial and will bully smaller fish (Banggais). I'd get rid of them......
 
Don't know if you get over Elmira way at all but I have some orange ricordia yuma, mushrooms, zoas, two types of green palys, green star polyps, and a two head frag of green tip frogspawn.
