Hey all!

I just purchased my first reef tank in preparation to set up a clownfish and nem tank! Of course I’ll have my CUC, probably some small snails and a shrimp! And, I’ll only be having 2 clownfish!

I was just wondering, will the tank I’m using, 75Litre, 20 Gallon, be big enough to comfortably support these critters? As in, will they all have enough room in the tank?

20 gallon will do just fine. Keep in mind that you should not attempt to put an anemone in the tank for at least the first 9 months. Seen a lot of people in your position that don't know that.

I think that’s probably the one piece of advice I’ve heard a lot, and very often. I’ll definitely be making sure I don’t put it in too early, and will definitely wait a while to add it!
