5.9 Gallon Frag Tank Question…

[liamkrenz]

What is the best fish to help cycle a small Frag Tank?? All opinions are appreciated. Thanks

The best way to cycle the tank would be dr Tim’s bacteria and ammonia because there’s not too many small fish hardy enough for cycling nano tanks.

Just get a bottle of bacteria to cycle the tank, why torture a fish? That size tank is really too small for any fish anyway.

It has a peace of Tampa Bay live rock in it and filtration from a two year old tank. I was thinking of putting a six-line wrasse in it or a clownfish. What is your opinion?

its your tank bro
The recommended tank size for a 6 line is 30 gallons, and the recommended tank size for a clownfish is 20 gallon.

Could I put a yellowtail damsel or is it still to small of a tank for one?

It’s still to big imo and I wouldn’t just torture a fish for no reason but its up to you.

Don't put a fish in there. You don't need to cycle it either (especially since you already seeded it). However, the corals will benefit from residual nitrate and phosphate from tossing some food in there.
