I started a 20g sw tank one week ago.
I have 3 damsels (2 yellow tail, 1 3-striped), heater, hydrometer, Whisper Power Filter 40, and gravel, fake coral. I do not have sand.

I would like to add a Percula Clown, hermit crabs and anemone. Possibly cleaner shrimp and bristle worms.

I understand the timing of the additions but....

Should I add live rock?
What type of lighting do I need?
what is needed for the anemone to survive?

Thanks for your help!!
 
first of all is your tank fully cycled? with no live rock it is probably not. Live rock will help in keeping you peremeters in check and where they need to be. For the anemone you need alot of light. for a 20 g I would not go any less than a PC and you need to make sure that the water is great. Anemones are very hard to keep the water has to be pristine.
