60 gallon breeder stocking

[bink177]

I’m starting to look into stocking my new 60 gallons breeder with fish. So far, I’m stuck on having a one spot foxface in here. I’m seeing online that the minimum tank length is 4 feet for these fish and so I think it’d fit fine in mine. My 60 gallon breeder is from Aqueon and it measures 48.5 x 18.5 x 18 in.

I know this is a pretty big fish for my tank and so I’d like to know a bit more about my stocking options. What other fish can I fit in this tank alongside the one spot foxface? I’d just like to know some options and routes before buying too many fish and overstocking.

I wouldn't put a foxface in their, even temporarily.

bump because I am in the same position right now lol.

No fox face! If you want utilitarian fish a bristletooth tang.

I have a 60 gallon breeder too with a one spot fox face in it and he’s doing well. I think a one spot would fit fine because of the large footprint the tank has and 4 foot length.

One spot fox face would be fine in that tank for a while but eventually might need to upgrade. While they do get large they are not the most active, mine aren't swimming around like tangs, they will go up and down and hangout in one area.
