stocking ideas

I have a 25 gallon tank. Currently stocked with 2 clownfish, Banggai cardinal, and a sharknose goby. I got a clown goby, but haven’t seen him in weeks, even during feeding, so I’m pretty certain he’s dead somewhere. My nitrates and phosphates have been very low even with daily feeding. I’m...

I have decided to convert my 20 Gallon tank into a much-needed quarantine tank and shift the current inhabitants to a new 40 gallon breeder once it cycles. I'm looking for suggestions for compatible tank mates. This will be a soft coral reef tank, so I don't need anything that will munch on my...

Hi, I am curious about 55 gallon stocking. I don’t have a 55 gallon, I’m just really interested in what could live with a pair of maroon clowns in a 55 gallon. I know they can be very aggressive so what other stocking would you recommend to go with them in a 55 gallon?

Hi, I am thinking about stocking for my 15 gallon that has been running almost 2 months now (I only have a few softies atm) In terms of fish I was thinking I would get 1 clownfish, 1 possum wrasse, 1 Yasha goby/shrimp pair and 1 royal gramma. I am thinking about getting a pair of clownfish...

Hi! So just like the title hints at, I'm getting a new UNS 60U to replace my 5 gallon the cracked and broke. And seeing as the dimensions are quite strange: 23.6L x 14.6W x 14.6T , so I feel like I need to change up some stocking options that would fit a standard 20 High or 20 long, so, any...

I’m looking at getting a pair of clownfish for my 32 gallon. Is there a species I can get that won’t be belligerent toward other tank mates? I plan on adding some pajama cardinals, an orchid dottyback, and possibly some type of corris wrasse to the tank. Should I go with a solo clownfish? I had...

I’ve been running a nanocube or biocube for 7 years now. In that time I’ve had an engineer goby (who just passed at age 10 and nearly 2ft long) and a four stripe damsel the whole time. A Madagascar clownfish, green corris wrasse, and coral beauty angel have all passed through. I had to get rid...

Getting so close to finally filling the 210 I should start researching what I can add. Currently in the 75 we have 1 yellow anglefish, 1 blue eye tang, 2 ocellaris clowns, and 1 filefish. The filefish will be returned to the lfs. He took care of the aiptasia and then moved on to the zoa garden...
