![]() I've read a good # of fish for a 33 gallon tank is 6. So I'm being very selective on what fish I pick. When I add my sump can I add more fish?
Anyone ever had problems with coral banded shrimp with polyps and zoas? Want a reef safe cleaner shrimp. |

![]() Hi Trev, to me, 6 fish seems a little high for a 33 gallon reef tank. Unless they are all really small fish that have no aggressive tendencies.
But that's just my opinion.

![]() How about mollies? They are cheap, hardy and will help keep your upcoming algae issues controlled

I'm just thinking about the first fish I bought to help cycle my tank and If I were to do it again I'd start with Mollies instead of the Damsels that a LFS reccomended (which were also more expensive.) let alone a PITA

![]() If I wanted mollies I'd have stuck with fresh water
![]() I pretty much only want smaller fish. Clown and goby sized stuff. Largest would probably be a Dwarf angelfish of some kind. Even when I was doing freshwater I much prefered smaller fish. No comments on the CBshrimp? |

![]() Nano reef has a pretty good fish selection threadwith the smaller aquarium in mind, in the beginner forum. My first couple fish were a ocellaris clown, six line wrasse and a royal gramma. All have been great fish and there has been zero argession issues.
