Lion fishes to be frozen/pallets trained first before adding diamond goby.
So long as they are trained, they will refrained from attacking ls.
Can you be sure that your office temp will be 24 throughout the day?
have you consider the heat from your Lights/Pumps/Wavemakers? they will add on to the temp.
Also, if your office AC is off for the night and weekend, you have to consider fan etc to standby.

Q: Should I do a water change while my aquarium is cycling?
A: Ammonia and nitrite levels need to spike during the cycling process in order for the cycle to continue and finish it's task. If you perform a water change to reduce these levels while the aquarium is cycling, you will only be delaying the completion of the cycle. You will reach the end result (a fully cycled tank) much earlier if you do not perform a water change until the ammonia and nitrite levels drop to zero, and the nitrate level starts rise.
I shouldnt be doing that now. Just wait and see ba...
Thanks Mossrope!

Hi Phua, my tank is into its 2nd week. The NO2 tends to raise later, hence, just hang on to it.
Once the NO2 goes down, NO3 will go up and soon cycling will be done.
Patience! I too having hard time controlling.
Cheers,

Jacky, i almost type (Un....e) hahaha.
Anyway, thats what the webby wrote. HS eats this kinda Starfish.
But having 1 x HS in it can be quite pleasing to the eyes as well.
