I’m on the tail end of equipment building, I have begun compiling a livestock list. The total volume is 230 but I know I can’t include that for livestock so after the sump volume I have 190 gallons to play with (so I’m using a 1 inch per 3 gallon rule). This list is also excluding the clean up crew. I’m open to criticism on my list!
x2 Yellow Pyramid Butterfly
X1 Yellow Tang
X1 Flame Fin (Tomini) Tang
X3 Dispar Anthias
X1 Six Line Wrasse
X1 Blue Hippo Tang
X1 Purple Tang
Total inches (all fully grown) is 65 inches. 2 inches over the 1 inch per 3 gallon rule. The goal is having a great stock of fish, but to also have “jobs” that make my life easier in the tank. Given this is a good list, should I bring down the Anthias number to 2 total, bringing me under the max length for the tank?
