Okay, I have a bunch if fish in my 29G Biocube Reef. Before I begin, keep in mind that this is my first tank, let alone marine, let alone REEF. That being said, I don't want very difficult fish. Now, let's begin!
I have some fish and inverts. Here is a full list of my stock.
FISH:
2 Occelaris Clownfish
1 bicolor dottyback
1 six line wrasse
Inverts:
1 Blood Shrimp
1 Lettuce Nudibranch
1 Emerald Crab
1 Fighter Conch
6 Turbo Snails
Corals:
1 Frogspawn Coral
And that's all! I also have a patch if GSP, but it was in my live rock, and not completely alive. It's there, it's growing, but isn't very healthy looking. It keeps growing back, but looks dried out, to put it bluntly. My emerald crab and wrasse eat it, but I don't mind. It's not very attractive, as a matter of fact.
So, for fish. Now what? I was thinking maybe one or two more fish. Probably a Pygmy angelfish, most likely a cherub, flame, or coral beauty.
Then maybe a goby or some sort of burrowing/perching fish, or a few pajama cardinals. I think that would be overstocking, but I would add the final two fish in long spanses to keep my bio filter working.
Your thoughts? We'll discuss corals and inverts later.
And finally, my dottyback. He's only an inch or less, but I'm afraid he'll eat my shrimp (3 inches). Should I worry? They seem fine right now.
Thanks!
