Afternoon, all

Further to my last, the aquarium replaced one of the clowns the other week. Monited for a bit however, they both seem to be getting on really well. Added a conch last week so thats 2 clowns, a pep and a conch. For a 50L tank would you say thats about it or would I get one more in?

Conch are omnivores but generally prefer to be herbivores eating algae. They eat scraps of food on the bottom, nori placed out for them, herbivore pellets, etc...they are constantly foraging. Typically added to mature tanks not new tanks.

He gets around a lot! On the glass, rock (as you can see now) and also right on the water line near return pump sometimes

That's why the eat a lot, constantly moving around. Algae wafer on the bottom will entice him.
