Check ur mechanical filters regularly, wash it once it gets dirty. This will help to lessen NO2 & NO3 build up. Do not overfeed & siphon rocks,sand top when doing water change out.

If your tank is matured, then this load is not a problem. If less than 3 months old, may be problem.

If you are worried...then get a good skimmer...

However, I do worry for your other fish as you have a yellow-tailed damsel aka bully there...
