mix with ocellaris

[Doronxl7]

Hey guys,
I've got 22 gallon tank without sump (only waterfall filter for 50g).
The tank is bowfront with 31' length \ 14.5' height.
I got protein skimmer (BM-NACQQ) and 35 lbs live rock + 50lbs of reef salt.

no lighting right now. (in a 3-4 months ill be able to buy led light so probably ill add 1 Bulb Anemone or something like that for the Ocellaris)

I had 80gallon marine for a few month's before...

I've got few lists of fish for stocking.. what do you guys thinking about this-

1) * 3 Ocellaris Clownfish
* 3-4 Kaudern's Cardinal
* 1 turbo snail
* 1 Scarlet Skunk Cleaner Shrimp
* 1 Cluster Duster

2) * 5 kaudern's cardinal
* 1 Ocellaris clownfish
* 1 scarlet skunk cleaner shrimp
* 1 cluster duster
* Brittle Sea Star

3) * 2 ocellaris clownfish
* 1 Brittle Sea Star
* 2-3 cluster duster
* 1-2 scarket skunk cleaner shrimp
* 1-2 purpil firefish

Or what mix should I do? thanks for the help guys! =]

You are better of just sticking with a pair of clowns, a pair will form and more than likely pick off the third fish. Also just a pair of Kauderns too. Make sure you get a matched pair or more than likely you will end up with aggression. Especially in a tank that small.

I agree, a pair of clowns in a 22 is about what you get. There's really no good way to put 5-7 fish in a tank that size.

Also agree. Any option you've suggested is too many fish for a 22G...Maybe 4 max. A pair of clowns, maybe a small goby and one firefish...one cluster duster, one shrimp.
