Greetings Reefers,
I am looking for your opinion. How much do you believe is to much livestock in a tank? In the past I have declared,"I will not overstock my tank" way to many corals later I ask myself "what happen" many others I have spoke with have had the same thing happen. Well what the heck is overstocked? Tell me what you think..........
Dave:confused:
 
Overstocked, Fish,corals or combo of both? At one time in my 210 reef I had 42 fish & 75 corals. The fish ranged from gobies, blennies, wrasses, tangs & angels. A variety of mushrooms,ricordia, a hammer, frog spawn, zoos, a couple of brains & numorous SPS & LPS. It was considered by some to be overstocked.
 
Gotta have room to grow

My last tank was packed, if I would have put less I would probably had even better growth.
 
Well just dont get more than one kenya tree and one xenia and you wont end up like me. Overstocked is when you have kenya growing off your snails- no I am not kidding :rolleyes:
 
Wow...moving frags, you might be onto something here! ;) I'm in the process of trying to overstock mine right now, and think I'm doing a good job....
