Question about how many fish I can put in my tank. (55g)
So I have a 55g liverock/livesand tank and I was wondering how many fish I can put in there. These are what I have in mind so far:
-two clowns -jawfish -mandarin goby -orange diamond goby -cleaner shrimp and possibly a starfish. Along with that I already have some sea slugs that came on live rock and three hermit crabs, plus I want to add some coral and some anemones. Would this be too much? Also if I still have some room in my tank what would you add to compliment the fish i am looking at? Thanks, as I am still rather new to this. |

I think the gobies may fight. They can be really territorial! Considered any wrasses?

I have, but I'm not too sure about them as I feel like I may already be overloading my system. But I am new to salt so I'm not sure how touchy the system is.

I think if you skip over one of the gobies you would be able to have a flasher or small fairy wrasse. But just make sure you let the tank mature.

Wow the flasher wrasse is beautiful! I really like it. TBH I think I would pass on the diamond goby as I will already have a jawfish to dig.

I would personally skip the mandarin.....unless you know for sure that it is eating a frozen food, it would likely starve out in a 55g
