I have a 12 Gallon JBJ Nano Cube with 20lbs ofsand and 15 gallons of live rock I took out the NC pump and added a rio 800 for more circulation ( I also split the water return so it gets water all through out the tank)

At this time I have:
1. 3 run of the mill hermit crabs
2. 1 Anenome crab
3. 3 Bumble Bee snails
4. 1 (tiny) Yellow clown goby
5. 1 Orange firefish (It is quite small compared to the other fire fish I have seen)

The tank is coming along great the coraline alge is bulding up nicely, I have yet to add any corals, however, I plan on doing so. (Zoos, xenias, pretty standard stuff)

If I were to add a:
Flasher Wrasse and a pair of true percula clowns would that be too much for the system?

Thanks for your help!
 
thats alot of bio! how much carbon and H2o changes plan? still thats too many fish in a tank that small. 1" per 5 gallons is med. bio-load.
 
I am planning on doing WWC (Weekly Water Changes) Right now I only have the two gobies I was just curious to see what people thought about having 5 fish in a 12 gallon tank. I also read that a yellow clown goby does not count against bio load because they clean the sand? I dont remember where I read this, and its prob not true...Oh well thanks for the feedback!
