The damNsels  , that the LFS sold me to cycle my tank  , those were my first inhabitants, but they were gone in 3 weeks, and luckily they were no problem to catch. My first real inhabitants (long term) was a pair of false percs (still have the female), and later that day, I also got a coral beauty. Before I get scolded for a screw up I made a year ago, I'll explain, I had the 2 damNsels, removed them, and brought them to the LFS, and bought the 2 clowns, and the clowns were actually smaller than the damsels, so the LFS said it was basically an even trade (bioload wise), and if I wanted, I could add the coral beauty, so I got the clowns and went back later that day for the angel. It all seemed logical, but probably a bad choice, because I lost the angel to ick 2 months later.
