stocking line up in 29g Biocube

[igot2gats]

Here are my thoughts on my stocking order for my upcoming Biocube transformation, for those who are following my other thread about the LED clip on lighting - in this order.

There'll only be 1 of each.

Ocellaris Clown
Court Jester Goby
Yellow Striped Cardinal
Bi Color Blenny
Blue Green Chromis

Too many? Good order? Thoughts?

Get the more aggressive fish, like the clown last. Allow the gobies to settle in first :fun2:

I would only shoot for 4 max and thats with ultra good filtration. Such good live rock, a skimmer, and some chemical filtration.

Six Line Wrasse - forgot about this guy, and love the personality & color.

Ok, here's my new list....you're probably right....5 would be a little crowded. Not only that, but overcrowding makes a tank look smaller, IMO.

Thanks for the advice.

Ok after actually looking at your list, not counting how many lol, I would say put cardinal and goby in first, then the clown, then the six line. There is a possibility the six line will pick on others, particularly the cardinal since they dont move much.

May wanna look into a pygmy or possum wrasse instead

I have a 6 line in my 28 gal nano cube and it seems a bit tight for the 6 lines. And you know they get aggressive if confined in small places. My 6 lines kill all my small clowns my yellow gobies.
