65 gallon tank how many fish?

[Cflip]

Currently I have a flame hawk, yellow accessor, clown and firefish. In QT I have a potters and three resplendent anthias. Is that too many?

Does your tank have a sump or skimmer?

It should be fine.

Depends on the bio-load capacity of the tank, if you have a big sump and refugium working on the tank then maybe one or two more fish depending on size. If you're using a Hang-on back filter, you should probably slow down on fish for a while until you figure out how your system behaves as your QT fish are added.

Yes I have a skimmer and sump and filter sock.

I thought I might lose a fish in QT. Thought three anthias was better than two. I can give one or two away if need be.

Your tank should be able to handle those fish without issue.

My Aqueon 65 RR with a lot of rock and a 20L sump has the following to give you some reference:

2x Ocellaris Clownfish - Amphiprion ocellaris
1x Bluestreak Cleaner Wrasse - Labroides dimidiatus
1x Bi-Colour Blenny - Escenius bicolor
1x Bristletooth Tomini Tang - Ctenochaetus tominiensis
1x Lubbock's Fairy Wrasse - Cirrhilabrus lubbocki
1x Firefish - Nemateleotris magnifica
1x Blue-Sided Wrasse - Cirrhilabrus cyanopleura (I believe)

The tank has zero issues between everyone and the bio-load is managed by a refugium (about 1/3 the sump) + Icecap K2-120 skimmer. They get a cube of small grade mysis every other day, a pinch of PE 2mm pellets daily and I put in a 1/2 sheet of nori twice a week, which oddly the cleaner wrasse goes nuts over.

Hope that gives a good picture of what can be housed.

Beautiful. I have same tank. How much LR you have in there?

I have 7 fish (2 mocha clowns, 2 yellow tail damsels, 1 tailspot blenny, 1 starry blenny, 1 royal gramma) in a 60g cube with no issues at all... Plus 30+ corals in a mixed reef: Rainbow bubble tip anemone, SPS, LPS, softies.

I plan on adding 1-2 more fish... you're fine.

Tank was taken down like a year ago. Only a tomini tang, single clown and cleaner wrasse made the trip out of it. Lost a c.cyanopleura and the other clown for some reason post-move.

Tank had like 30lbs of marco rock in it, something I wouldn't do again. Too much rock and with any type of acro growth would have been little open swimming area.

My 65 gal tank have the following fishes
1 Tomini Tang
3 Flameback angels
2 ocellaris
1 Flag tail shrimp goby.

I plan to put two more flasher wrasse or maybe a pair of Leopard wrasse in it.

I have to reset up my office 65 gal tank this year. It sprung a leak after 7 years or so. After much deliberation, I settle with a list of fishes as below: Tomini Tang Copper Banded Butterfly Harem of 3 African Flameback dwarf angels A pair of clown fish, Black snowflakes, breed by a friend of...
