yes15 gallons right?
What about a pair of classic clowns?
I don't plan on keeping a nem though, that's my only concernWhat about a pair of classic clowns?
Oh clowns dont need a nem. Mine host a corner of the tank in my 15. In my other two tanks they host a rock lolI don't plan on keeping a nem though, that's my only concern
Okay, and would I still be able to have them while still having a firefish and a lawnmower blenny?Oh clowns dont need a nem. Mine host a corner of the tank in my 15. In my other two tanks they host a rock lol
or atleast a lawnmower? because lawnmowers can benefit because they eat algae don't they?Okay, and would I still be able to have them while still having a firefish and a lawnmower blenny?
I wanna be able to have more fish than just 2 clowns though. Because I know they can be aggressive and it can be hard to keep other fish with them.The only fish I have in my IM 15 are a pair of clowns. I have 3 snails, one emerald crab, 4 hermits and a coral banded shrimp. If that helps you plan your stocking list at all!
Okay, thank you!To be honest those 4 are pushing it for a 15, you wont be able to add much more. 4 fish max I would say. Theres a reason I only keep two (clowns) in my 15 gallon. If you got tiny fish you could get a few more, lawnmower probably will out grow the tank. I had one that was 4 inches long. Bigger than I thought he would get!
Nano fish:
Neon cleaner goby
Yasha goby
Clown goby
Yellow watchmen/pistol shrimp pair
Clownfish
Dottyback
Azure damsel
Royal gramma
These are small nano fish I can think of off the top of my head. If it were my tank I wouldnt add more than 2 of the smaller fish, you probably will just have to do water changes weekly to control nutrients or maybe look into a nano skimmer. Just keep in mind the adult sizes of all fish
Do you think 2 clowns, a dottyback, and a watchman with pistol shrimp is too much?To be honest those 4 are pushing it for a 15, you wont be able to add much more. 4 fish max I would say.

Just those? No. But if adding to the blenny and firefish yes. Just be aware dottybacks can be aggressive. Mine is a chicken but some people hate them for their aggression.Do you think 2 clowns, a dottyback, and a watchman with pistol shrimp is too much?
I meant just thoseJust those? No. But if adding to the blenny and firefish yes. Just be aware dottybacks can be aggressive. Mine is a chicken but some people hate them for their aggression.
do you think it could be because you have clownfish that they are probably intimidated by?Just those? No. But if adding to the blenny and firefish yes. Just be aware dottybacks can be aggressive. Mine is a chicken but some people hate them for their aggression.
Possibly, the dottyback is in my 70 gallondo you think it could be because you have clownfish that they are probably intimidated by?
Oh, I'll ask if it would be okay to include one whenever I stock.Possibly, the dottyback is in my 70 gallon
If I were you I would stick to smaller and peaceful fish my clowns love having the tank all to themselvesOh, I'll ask if it would be okay to include one whenever I stock.
so I should stay away from clowns and dottybacks or I should just stay away from dottybacks?If I were you I would stick to smaller and peaceful fish my clowns love having the tank all to themselves
