Can I add 6 Bangaii Cardinal fish to 180 gallon tank? The tank just cycled so the Bangaii Cardinal's will go into quarantine first for a month. The quarantine tank is only 30 gallons.

I know that with clownfish that groups from the same clutch of eggs actually recognize each other and won't kill each other off. I would if you success could have been due to them being siblings and less aggressive with each other.Groups can be kept In large systems, but still with caution. We had a group of 50 in a 400g display at our facility. All from the same batch and always kept together. Overall only lost a few and the only thing we found it likely to be during necropsy was aggression.

i have about 30 in my tank
and have formed 3 or 4 pairs with no more issues than the tangs or wrasses
and normally add 5 or 6 at a time about every 2 months
