Too many fish?

[Authentic]

65 gal,and thinking of adding 3 flasher wrasses to my existing stock of
2 oc clowns
1 dragonet
Watchman goby
4 blue reef chromis
1 red hawk
1 yellow assessor
Too much? I really like the idea of a group of flashers,1 male 2 female.

you can figure in S/W 1 fish per 5 gallons of water .. pending on the size of the fish .. No Tangs Please .. right now your at 55 gallons worth of fish .. is your tank at least 48 long ??

This rule doesnt really apply in SW. To the OP... you are fully stocked right now. A 65g tank after LR and LS may only have 55g of water. Do yourself and your current fish a favor and dont add any more to the tank.

yea 36 is to small to add anymore .. time for a upgrade ..

36x24x24

If those are the dimensions, I think that's 90 gallons, not 65.

Agree. No rules or guidelines like that in saltwater.
