I have a 5x2x2 with a large sump I think its a total of 150 US Gallons. I use a Deltec APF600 with Ozone (24/7). I have around 125 pounds of high quality live rock. My nitrates are very low,my ORP is always 350-400.

I have

2 Clarki Clowns
7 Green Chromis
1 Midas Blenny
1 Clown Goby
1 Spotted Mandarine
2 Orchid Dottybacks
1 Eibl Angelfish
1 Niger Triggerfish
1 Chevron Tang
1 Sailfin Tang
1 Regal Tang

What do you think? I was hoping to add one more fish. I would like to add a small Majestic Angelfish. Do you think it would be too much?

Thanks
 
1 Chevron Tang
1 Sailfin Tang
1 Regal Tang

All get WAY too big for that tank. Have you seen a full size Sailfin? theyre about 18" from top to bottom. A full size Regal is up at about 14-16"


Go down to your local aquarium, and take a look at how big these fish get. You're overstocked already.

You can have a Niger Trigger w/those other fish? I thought they were too aggressive to house w/"peaceful" fish.


I would be concerned about it making a meal of the smaller fish [Clown Goby, Manderins']
 
Thanks for the replys.

My Trigger is fine. He gets alittle aggressive when its feeding time,but not much. He had one go at the mandarine,but realised there poisonus,and hasnt bothered him since. The mandarine is happy,and so is the clown goby.

He is a great community fish.

The tangs are all small,its going to be at least 3/4 years before they get to those sizes.

I dont think i will bother with the Majestic. As well as being at my stocking limit,he would get a hard time from the tangs.
