Fish stock ideas

[polancoeddie1]

Im am a newbie and starting a 29g biocube.. i have it running for 3 weeks now and wanted to add 4 fishes max to my tank. I wanted to add 1 clown goby citirnis, 1 blue reef chromis, 1 clownfish, and 1 carpenter flashe wrasse. What do you guys think about it? Adding them slowly. Which should I put in first? Or is this whole setup a disaster?

The minimum suggested tank size for that wrasse is 55. Wrasses love to swim, so a 29 is probably a little small.

Sequence is a little overrated, as inevitably, fish die and need to be replaced anyways. But none of those are particularly aggressive, especially not to each other, so you should probably be fine doing it however.

+1 on the tank being too small for a Flasher Wrasse. You can look into Possum Wrasses instead.

I'd skip the flasher and get a pygmy possum wrasse, very nice wrasse for a smaller tank. I don't see a problem with any of the other fish.

Congrads on your first tank first. Take it slow....I'd add one fish at a time. Letting maybe a week or two go by as you add them. Ideally and you should QT each fish; search setting up a QT for ideas. Simple 5-10 gallon tanks works great.

I would add your clown first as it will be the most hardest. I would probably add the clown goby last.

As others have said a 29 gallon is a little small for a carpenter's wrasse. In addition to the possum you could also do a cryptic wrasse.

I love my possum wrasse. The second day I was frantically searching the tank to find him & all of a sudden he pops up with a look wondering what all the excitement was about.

Nice quiet little fish, swims in & out of the rockwork & found a spot where he can spy on me & all I see is his nose.
