20 long, no sump
20 long, no sump
I have a 20 gallon long tank with about 14lbs of live rock. I do not have a sump but I have an aquaclear 50 filter. I currently only have one true percula clown. I have a few snails (1 nessaria, 2 Mexican turbo). There is one other type that I have forgotten the name of. I am interested in adding more fish in the future but I am unsure of how many I can safely put in my tank. I do not want the (crap) to build up faster than it is being removed.

It is not possible to give you a "number" but you are probably able to add a small peaceful fish as long as it is not active.
[quote name="Roman3310" post=23814218]Hello seems like you very knowledgeable with what fish can go together and how many fish you can put in your tank.. when I got into the hobby I jumped right in with no experience I bought myself a 180gallon tank . I've been in the hobby now for 2 years or so. I was reading some of these posts and made me very curious. I'm not sure if you need on my formation but I'll give it to you anyway. My lighting ATI 60" 8×80 . On on a 180 gallon tank. 2 MP 40 jebao WP 40 powerhead . 2 overflow boxes to 75 gallon sump .12000dc return pump in middle it also feeds my refugium (chaeto no sand) .Two filter socks & DC2 protein skimmer . On my display tank I got live rock & sand. <br />
"¢Pair maroon clownfish hosting an anemone<br />
"¢5 blue green chromis <font color="Magenta">will reduce in number over time </font><br />
"¢ hippo tang <font color="Magenta">needs a larger tank long term </font><br />
"¢ cleaner wrasse<br />
"¢ six line wrasse <font color="Magenta">will reduce possible wrasse tank mates </font><br />
"¢ flame angel<br />
"¢ yellow tang <font color="Magenta">established zebrasoma tangs will limit additions as they are very territorial </font><br />
"¢ purple tang <font color="Magenta">established zebrasoma tangs will limit additions as they are very territorial </font><br />
"¢ blonde naso <font color="Magenta">needs a larger tank long term </font><br />
"¢ one spot foxface<br />
"¢ skunk shrimp, peppermint shrimp, emerald crab, some snails, couple hermit crabs<br />
"¢Duncan coral ,mushrooms ,Ricordea frog spawn , cocoa worm, Monti cap, Xenia.<br />
Now I still want to get a <br />
*Achilles tang <font color="Magenta">established tangs will not allow</font><br />
* copper band <font color="Magenta">established tangs will definitely not allow introduction as these require peaceful tank mates for introduction </font><br />
*Regal <font color="Magenta">established tangs will probably not allow</font><br />
* 2 reef safe bannerfish <font color="Magenta">established tangs may not allow</font><br />
* mandrian <font color="Magenta">not with a sixline wrasse </font><br />
*Some wrasses & gobies <font color="Magenta">wrasses may not be allowed with a sixline wrasse </font>[/QUOTE]
How about reef safe bannerfish two of them The established tangs will not take kindly to adding these fish
[/QUOTE]
That is why this thread is titled PLEASE check out your intended fish purchases here first! . . . Once you create a difficult situation, the options are few other than rehoming fish that won't allow additions.
Do u mean moving around rocks? Thank you for the feedback.

Starting Brand New Tank
Hello,
My name is Sean and I am brand new to both the marine aquarium hobby and reef central. I have a 40 gallon tank (36" x 18" X 17"), a API filstar XP- M canister filter, a 200 GPH marineland penguin filter, 3 hydor koralia 425 circulation pumps, a Lee's hang on protein skimmer, and a 36" current USA orbit led. I plan on keeping a peaceful community tank. My tank has been cycling for about a month with ~35 lbs live rock.
- 1 pair of clownfish
- 3 blue green chromis OR 3 pajama cardinal fish
- 1 shrimp goby/shrimp pair
- 1 firefish OR royal gramma
I plan to eventually grow some simple corals so I am trying to stay with reef safe fish. Thanks for all of your help.

[welcome]
The tang may make adding the fox face difficult; tank is marginal for two algae grazers with out supplying additional vegetable food
I am not able to go backwards in this thread. As such, in order to assess compatibility, I would need entire stocking list and tank size. That being said, sand sifting starfish starve to death after depleting beneficial organisms in the sand. NOT recommended.
