Help with stocking 72 gallon (3ft) tank?

[MoshJosh]

Can I add just one or two more???

Upgrading my 40 gallon and will move my other fish into the new tank but might want to add more??? Tank will be high flow sps tank.

Stocking already:
Longfin ocillaris clownfish X2
Springeri damsel
6 line wrasse
Lawnmower blenny (might switch with starry night blenny)
Dragon face pipe fish (might get second cause they are cool)
Yellow eel goby

Anything else I can or should add???

7 fish = 10 gallons per fish. Pretty full

I agree you’re pretty full because it’s only 3 feet long.

About the 1 fish x 10 gal rule I think this is pretty obsolete. Is not the same 7 chromis or 7 tangs in a tank.

I would say do your research but you could put a Royal gramma perfectly or other similar fish like could be a pseudochromis.

I have a question tho, have you been succesful with the dragon face pipefish? What does he eat?

I think i was successful. . . Until he got stuck on a powerhead during a water change and I didn't notice until it was too late? He didn't have a tailfin when I got him (old injury?) which may have affected his ability to escape the powerhead.

I got one because they are known to eat red bugs and I could not find interceptor but I ended up getting some and killing the bugs that way. It was hard to see exactly what he was eating, but I imagine it was pods because he was constantly swimming around and picking at the rocks.
