Are there any tangs that could fit in a 37g with 2 ocellaris clowns and a bi-colored blenny? Or even a 37 at all?

No I'm sorry

The minimum size for a tang is 75 IMO and that would just be for a smaller species like a Tomini or Kole. But there are a few dwarf angels that are absolutely beautiful like the Coral Beauty or the Flame that could do very well in your tank

Sorry. No tang.

Ok but would i be able to put 2 blue chromis in a 37 with my 2 clowns and my blenny plus a cleaner shrimp,peppermint shrimp,some hermits and snails and about 35 lbs. Of live rock.

Or can i only fit one chromis

You'd be ok with three chromis IMO. All of those fish have very little bioload and do not require daily feedings. From what I've heard, schooling fish do better in odd numbers. But it all depends on your filtration. How much LR and mechanical filtration do you have?

I think the 2 chromis, clowns and blenny would be fine. And the shrimp too.

Sharklover · 08-31-2011, 06:04 PM

About 35 lbs. Of LR and a filter graded for a 40-70 on my 37 and a pretty good power head and good lighting so u think this will work?---2x ocellaris clownfish. ----------1x bi colored blenny. ----------3x blue chromis. ------------cuc--- one cleaner shrimp,one peppermint shrimp, a few hermits, and a few snails plus mabey a small starfish----------37g with 2" sandbed, and 35 lbs. Of LR and good filtration/circulation/lighting-----------please can a few people approve of this stock list cuz i dont have it yet im setting it up soon... Thnx!

Which wood be beter for me 1-2-or 3?

Sergie · 08-31-2011, 06:27 PM

I think your tank can handle 3, but it's up to you and whatever look your going for.

carey · 08-31-2011, 06:39 PM

I'd probably hold off on the starfish though, I've found them hard to take care of and if you get a sand sifting one they can easily strave under the sandbed and decompose. :-(

i also think 2-3 would be fine on the chromis. Your other stock on the list isnt very large so it should all fit. But then you most likely can't add anymore than what you've listed.
