help me stock my tank

sds · #1 07/08/2007, 07:53 AM

I have a 58 gallon rr with a 20 long sump and a asm1 with recirc mod. I currently have a occelaris clownfish, yellow watchman, pistol shrimp, and a tang. I dont need any criticism on the tang I know he will be to large for my tank. I would like to add some more fish or inverts. What do you think would be a good choice

I'd enjoy the fish you now have, conservative stocking, maybe a pair/trio talbot's damsels. Do you keep corals?

I was considering adding a rainford goby. I have always kept my load down. I have corals mostly lps and soft. Not alot but hope to soon be adding some more. It is hard where i live no good lfs I have to drive about 200 miles one way or just have it shipped.

You can try a type of dwarf angel, but you have a small chance of it nipping at your corals. There are many types of reef safe wrasses that would do well. Your tang is probably going to be real mean to any new arrivals, but he should probably get over it after a few days as long as the new fish can make it that long.

maybe a flasher or fairy wrasse would be cool. Or even a six line wrasse. You could also look into grammas and dottybacks, a lot of cool fish in these species.

How about a blenny? I've always been a fan of the midas blennies.

never had a midas blenny but a great looking fish. I had a sixline a couple of years ago but he jumped and i was always scared after him.

I personally don't like sixlines much after my last experience. Far too agressive for me...
