6 fish in a 38 gallon.
2- Pair of Ruby Red Dragonets
2- Pair of Ocellaris Clowns
1- Orchid Dottyback
1- Yellow Chrysus Wrasse
The wrasse is the largest by far in he tank at about 3" and I would actually get rid of him if I could catch it. I personally think he will get a little big for my tank even though I haven't had any problems.

True, but its good to at least have a 'general' idea.Pointless measures. Whether 'fish per gallon', 'pounds of live rock per gallon', or some other rule-of-thumb, there are so many variable as to make the rule useless.

Who said anything about rules? .
OK, if not a 'rule-of-thumb', what would you call it?
This entire hobby is just for fun. Doesn't mean though that it mightn't be helpful for somebody new to the hobby to abandon some of these less useful myths.
Don't know if anyone posted this already but this calculator is pretty handy:

Awesome tool. Doesn't have all fish though.
I have 12 fish in a 93g. Calculator says my stocking level is 172%.
I have somewhere around 45-50 fish in my 300g. Mostly small ones like anthias, chromis and wrasses. Though I do have 4 large tangs as well. The total system is about 400g including a 70g refugium.
I do a 50g water change every 1-2 weeks and have never had any problems with nitrates or phosphates and my acros love it
