Very high bioload in my 210g reef: 7 yellow tangs, 1 Achilles, 1 Powderblue, 1 Regal tang; Potter's, African Flameback and Cherub dwarf angels; Blue Fairy, Cleaner and Yellow Wrasses; Midas and Red striped blennies. I used to have more fish in there but caught them out (actually, one jumped out so I put it into the 120g Fowlr)

The Fowlr has 1 med, 1 small porcupine puffer; 1 Snowflake moray; 1 Purple, 1 Powder Brown, 1 Regal tang; 1 Coral Beauty and 1 Lemonpeel dwarf angel; and 1 cleaner wrasse.

I have a very high bioload in my tank too, and I have to admit after reading some of the others I don't feel as bad anymore.

I have a 230g display and 110g sump. 200 pounds LR and lots of corals.

Tangs:
1 Lavender
1 Regal
1 Naso
1 Salfin
1 Yellow
1 Clown

Angelfish:
1 Queen
1 Emperor
1 Blueface
1 Coral beauty

Clowns:
2 Perc.'s
1 Saddleback

1 CBB

Gobies:
1 Mandarin
1 Green clown
1 Yellowhead sleeper

5 Chromis

1 Cleaner wrasse

1 Blueline pipefish (refugium)

1 G-smithi (small) mantis (sump)

1 pom pom crab

1 GBTA

1 Feather duster

Some snails and hermit crabs

One very large really good ASM skimmer

Ok so maybe I do feel bad, anyone want to set up a 1000g in my basement However I will say this: there is lots of swimming room as well as hiding places, all the fish are fairly healthy and they all get along really well together.

*Update: we added a 28g long zoa tank to our current system and it has 1 yellow clown goby, 1 bi-colour blenny, 1 sixline wrasse and 1 clam

Default small bioload

3 tanks: small bioload I think. I do not use sumps or skimmers or anything. Just LR and powerheads. I think they call it the Berlin system? Its all natural filtering. I do water changes once a month. Everything is happy and thriving.

20G:
2 one inch Naked Clownfish
1 Cleaner Shrimp
15 Blue Leg Hermit Crabs
8 Astrea snails
5 margarita snails

20G:
1 two inch black and white Clownfish
1 one inch percula
1 two inch sea urchin
1 three inch Mantis shrimp (inside a pastic container)
15 Hermit crabs
8 Margarita snails

10G:
2.5 inch Mantis shrimp
1.5 inch Three-stripe Damsel
4 hermit crabs (which the shrimp does not eat)
10 snails (which become the food of choice)
