Hello everyone! I was looking for stocking ideas for a 20g Aqueon standard. It has not been started yet. I’m just looking for ideas. Igreen’s guide says 3-5 fish for a 20, so of course I want to do 5 haha
Current idea:
- Clownfish pair (mocha storm and orange storm preferably but $$$)
- Orchid dottyback (not 100%)
- Tiger goby (for sifting sand)
- Wheeler’s goby & pistol shrimp pair
The dottyback and the tiger goby I am not 100% sold on! I love the color of the orchid and
the usefulness of the tiger goby, but I know there are alternatives. What are some small, COLORFUL fish that might replace an orchid dottyback? Maybe a fourline, sixline, or pink-streaked wrasse? I LOVE pink/purple fish (hence the orchid and wheeler’s), but the more color the better! Should I keep it at four fish? I plan on using ocean live rock btw.
For CUC I just plan on keeping whatever (good) hitchhikers come with the rock. Might add more later.
For corals I don’t really have a plan as those seem far in the future for me, but probably just softies and zoas. Maybe some easy lps.
Thank you for reading!
