Is this population ok?

In a 12gal aquapod I would like to keep;
1 green clown goby
1 yellowtail blue damsil
1 yellow stripped cling fish
None of them get any larger than 2".
Is this too much load for a 12G?

no it wouldnt be too big of a bioload but you may wanna reconsider that damsel...they're mean little suckers and a pain to get out unless you take out all the rock...i dont even bother with them anymore to be honest...it was bad enough the first 2 times lol.

I agree that it would be a little much for that size tank....

 

[Evyllchyld]

agree that it will be too much of a bioload, and damsels do suck... one was terrorizing my fathers 75g FOWLR tank.... Untill he bought a snowflake eel that is lol. But we couldn't get it out if we needed to.

you could pull it off... just dont do the damsel, i hate those fish more than anything.

 

[scuba14]

Thanks for all the advice. Beleive me, it is not that I selected the damsel, it is the first salt water fish I ever bought and I refuse to flush any fish. Not too easy to give hime away either. Lucky for me he is very dosil for a damsel, never bothers anything. I ended up with the damsel, blue neon, green clown goby, and baby scooter blenny. Dont worry, this is a temp tank, and I do have a refugium with plenty of pods. Bioload has been nothing, 0 nitrates, but that is probably because of all the very well seasoned rock. Thanks again!! You can see the tank in my galery.
