What Fish? For My Tank

[sexylilfreak]

i am a newbie. (NOT A NOOB) haha. i have experience in keeping all othr fish apart frommarine. especially in a 10 gallon nano. i am getting a 10 gallon nano tank. and with about 5 to 6 kg of live rock. no corals. i am not rdy for that yet.

decided i definitely want

2 common clownfish
1 cleaner shrimp

i want one last fish but because its pretty NANO. i am not sure what fish i should get, some ppl have given me some opinions. i am looking for a sort of extraordinary fish lyk the yellow tang except lyk a mini size. and theyve said:

royal gramma or
black basslet
blue neon gobies (will be kept in schools though)

please tell me what you think

2 Clowns in a 10g nano is pretty much max as to what I would put in. What type of filtration will you have? Skimmer?

[sexylilfreak]

yeah

I would say two clowns is pretty much max for your tank.

there are small yellow tangs that you can purchase but they can get bretty big after a couple of years. i would move towards cleaning fish... for example a sand sifter goby would be a nice choice.

i really hope u were joking about the tangs....your maxed out wiht teh clowns which might be too much with only 6lbs of liverock

[sexylilfreak]

no i was too dumb to see that tangs can t be kept in captive in a nano

What kind of skimmer do you have?

I would stick to just the clowns. Maybe after a you get more experience in a year or so you could add 1 very small fish like a neon goby. If you want more then 2 fish look into fish that stay smaller and u can got more. You could do a pair of neon gobies and a pair of yellow clown gobies. I always think cleaner shrimp look oversized in small aquariums you might want to look into smaller shrimp.

here is a link to some nano fish
