Would like some input on my potential stock for a 55g reef. I will have around 50lbs LR and a 2-3" LS bed. Will not have a sump in the beginning but will probably add one later. I will also have an octopus skimmer HOB. And weekly water changes.
My wishlist is:
1 Lawnmower blenny
1 Watchman goby
2 ocellaris clowns
3-5 chromis (probably just 3 but would 5 be alright?)
1 sixline wrasse
1 cardinal
2 pistol or peppermint shrimp (Which one?)
1 blue and pink sea star
1 Flame scallop (if possible)
1 emerald crab
and some snails as well
What do you guys think? Will this list work, if not then what should I substitute or leave out and why? I think most of the fish would be alright, but I am curious about the inverts and their compatibility and usefulness. Also, if I have peppermint shrimp would they form a relationship with the goby? Should I get two gobies, one for each shrimp?
Thanks for the help!
