60 gallon cube stocking

[peps_win]

I wnat to setup a 60 gallon cube and i have a few stocking ideas the tank footprint is 24 on every side
Mandarin drgonet
2 pearly jawfish
Diamond goby
Goby and tiger shrimp
Clownfish pair
I think the bottom foot print isnt big
Enough for all the bottom dwellers but the ones I would love are atheist 1 pearly jawfish, a diamond goby and the Goby and tiger pistol shrimp.
And then if you have any ideas for stocking please send them

Id ditch the diamond goby they can make a tank very sandy and I feel there are better choices. I think the Orange Tail Blenny or Tailspot Blenny is awesome. Another would be a small wrasse so you have more movement up top. Other wise I think your stock list is pretty good for the tank size.

What type of small wrasse would you suggest

Not mandarin/dragonet until you built good copepods population in your aquarium, or have plenty of pods in stock/ breeding station or willing to feed/ pay to keep them alive :)

Yeah I know they should be introduced around 6 months I've done my research

I got my dragonet after about 3 months, but did heavy seeding of pods beforehand. Put in 2 bottles of pods twice a month for a couple months. If you don’t mind spending for the live pods, I’d go for it.

I'm no expert, not telling you what to do , it's your aquarium

Just offering advice through my own experience.
Wish you the best success:)
