As I set up my tank I'll have the DSB with LR going before I add anything.
What order do I add a cleaner crew, corals, fish?
If the cleaner crew goes in first, will they have anything to live on
besides what might come off the LR, or so I need to feed them anything?

Thanks

That is correct, they are eating what they can find, cleaning up the tank of the
nuisance algaes and decaying matter on the LR. You can add a pinch of flake
food every other day if you think they are going hungry.

As you add fish or corals, do it gradually so your natural filtration can adapt
to the new bio-load.
