Hi everyone!
I’m currently looking at my reefs stock and trying to find the general “rule” for stocking reef tanks.
For context I have a 164L 36 gallon tank with a sump, skimmer, live rock, refugium and it is 2 years old, i’m still slightly newer to corals so it’s a whole new ballpark! i’m very on it with maintenance with weekly water changes, regular testing, dosing for corals, cleaning my skimmer etc.
I have attached an image of my current stocking. What is the general rule for how much you can have in your tank? i’m assuming with my current stock I will want no more small reef fish and just focus on corals?
Any ideas/discussions on stocking ideas more than welcome! I’m loving watching the corals, I especially love ones with movement. I am happy with the 2 SPS, I don’t think i’m wanting to venture into SPS further than these two.
