its a 20 gallon tank with a penguin bio wheel 150 filter, a power head, 50watt heater with two live rocks.... its been cycling been for a week.

if anyone can help me with any pointer on saltwater tanks it would help a lot
 
what is your ph, salinity how many pounds are your live rock what is your substrate?

I would say more live rock. And be sure to plan out what you want in advance. Impulse buying can lead to disaster in the salt world.

I could swear I already posted in here...
 
get more live rock
 
from what ive gathered you will need some sort of test kit for your parameters and once they are stable you may add some more hearty fish. the rule of thumb is to have one pound of live rock per gallon.
 
go to newbie starting 55 gallon tank, and you'll get a lotta info.
 
before we bash his LR we should find out what they are, if he's got 2 15 pound pieces he's ahead of the game ;)

+1 to everything else that was said :)
