Hi ![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
Currently looking into getting the above tank (will be my first) and wanted to pre-plan what I could have in my tank.
Ideally, I want all levels of the tank to be used equally, and for as many fish as possible to be utilitarian so it works like a nice little ecosystem so do let me know if there are any other good ones!
Here’s what I’ve got:
X2 bangaii cardinalfish (if my tank is overcrowded, I would be willing to let these guys go)
X2 ocellaris clownfish (I hear they’re good to get first)
X1 helfrinchi firefish (as they’re peaceful fish, should I be adding first?)
X1 pistol shrimp/yellow watchman goby pair
X1 lawnmower blenny (to keep algae under control)
X1 melanurus wrasse (I hear they’re good for flatworm/pest control!)
X1 tomini tang (to add last - ideally won’t compete with the lawnmower if I’m feeding enough?)
I would also like emerald crabs and cleaner shrimp in the mix too.
Does this look like a suitable selection for my tank? Let me know!![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
