Looking for some input on my stocking scheme. Except for a couple fish, nothing is set in stone. "˜Must-have' fish are in bold.
Just wanted to make sure there won't be any compatibility issues and looking for suggestions of other fish to stock.
Pearly Jawfish "“ This is a definite. Planning on a 4-5" sandbed of varying grain size. Since they're a tad timid, should he go in first ?
Mandarin "“ Planning on adding one about 8-12 months after the tank is established to ensure a good pod population
Royal Gramma "“ One of my favorites. See any problems with compatibility ?
Here's some other fish I'm thinking about. I obviously couldn't have all of them, but which ones would go well with the jawfish, mandarin, and royal gramma ?
Clown Goby "“ These guys are small and peaceful, so I wouldn't see a problem
Wrasse "“ I like them, but I assume they're a no-no because they eat pods. Any species that won't decimate a pod population ?
Ocellaris Clown "“ I would think unless I get a breeding pair, this won't be a problem.
Lawnmower Blenny "“ Always liked these guys and wanted to add one when the inevitable hair algae bloom comes.
Neon Blue Goby "“ Always liked the look of these guys. Could I get away with a couple in a 65g ?
Antias "“ Would like one or two, but a 36" long tank probably isn't big enough
Firefish/Cardinal "“ I would think this would be a good "˜open water' choice
Let me know what you guys think. Pretty open to suggestions or other fish I might have overlooked. Like I said, the only thing that's definite is the jawfish, mandarin, and royal gramma.
