Hi from me and my new orca tl450

[SandDancer]

Hopefully this is the right section to say hello to you all and give you a brief description of why i am here.
my name is karl and i am from the northeast of england , i have recently bought my first nano = orca tl450 and have been looking round the web to help me find some good sites to help me along the way .
I have allready bought my living rock ( fiji ) and also my water , the tank has been running now for about 7 days , all my levels are ok so far , only had a few minor problems , first problem was my heater blowing into pieces ( as the chamber didnt fill with water quick enough ) second problem was my skimmer cup filling with water constantly ( due to me filling the tank to high with water ) .
Looking to get 2 clown fish to start , when do you think would be the soonest i could introduce them to the tank.

all help appreciated , regards karl

I would wait about a month. What is the water volume? I don't know if you can get them where you are but I like the stealth heaters as they are plastic exteriors and don't explode ... ever. Titanium heaters are nice too, but that's up to you and what's available. My skimmer sits on top of a crate made out of egg crate (labeled "light diffuser" in most major home stores) to help keep the water from filling them skimmer cup. Most manufacturers will tell you what depth the water should be.

By the way
