Hey guys, so I currently have a 30 gal tank cycling and was hoping to get some thoughts on my stocking list and what people think would be good for an initial CUC.

Here is my stocking list:
2x ocellaris clownfish
1x royal gramma basslet
1x yellow or pink spotted watchman goby
1x starry or bicolor blenny
1x banggai cardinal

Is this too many fish for the tank size? I think these fish will play well together but any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Lastly, what would be a good initial CUC to start off with once the first fish is in? Thanks for the help!
 
I think it could work but you should consider swapping out the bi color or starry with a Tailspot Blenny. They’re much more docile and would probably be more compatible. As for a CUC, just a few snails and maybe some hermits should work fine. In my 32 gallon I have a few ceriths, turbos (bulldozers), astrea, nassarius, and hermits.
