Hello, thanks for your response regarding my 120g.
I also have a biocube 14, running about 3 years. It's 15.5x15x16" including the filter section, live rock, sandbed, softy tank.
I currently have a Stonogobiops nematodes/pistol shrimp pair. I would like to add:
a clown goby, probably a green one
a yellowstriped cardinalfish
Am I pushing it too much with 3 small fish in this tank?
Thanks

Thanks! Is it the cardinal behavior/niche that is a no? Would another fish, like a Wetmorella sp. or helfrichi firefish work? Or is the tank considered stocked with two fish?
Appreciate your time.

A Wetmorella sp. or helfrichi firefish would do fine.

I'm upgrading my two mixed reef tanks to a 180 gallon with a 55 gallon sump. Just wanted to make sure all fish would get along and bioload wouldn't be too terribly high. The wrasses are currently split between two tanks will definitely use an acclimation box when introducing them to the new tank.

Hello everyone! I was planning on starting a reef tank in the future and was hoping to get some advice on stock and a couple other questions. The tank would be a 125g reef with a 30 or 40g sump.
Would I need a heater and a chiller? (I live in Windsor ON)
What are some good beginner corals?
Stock:
1x White cheek tang
4x green chromi
1x mccoskers flasher wrasse
1x yellowhead jawfish
1x redhead solon fairy wrasse
2x clown fish
1x flame Angel
1x lemonpeel angel
1x firefish
1x Foxface one spot
1x Valentini puffer
I get that some of them might nip corals, but would there be any between fish aggression? Would it be overstocked? I checked aqadvisor and some of the fish weren't on there. Also what would my best options be for inverts and CUC? I really like long spine sea urchins, brittle stars, and pistol and cleaner shrimp. Would these be possible? Thanks for any help!

Thanks for the advice and the welcome! I'll replan my stock and make a new thread.
Is the 100 gallon tank size for a single specimen then?
Yes. However, your tank is 300 liters which is 75 gallons. A pair of some fish during mating displays need a fair amount of horizontal tank space. And I suggest you update your "About Me" as it specifies an even smaller tank.
Ah of course, it's a 100 gallon system but display volume only for picking fish!
Just checking as the suppliers had a lovely pair around 4" each and offered me a very good price on them but thought I'd check and make an informed decision
I assume the tank is too small to have a male and a female leopard wrasse pair?

That is correct.
