So I just got the uns 60 a tank and I got a pair of extreme gladiator clowns in there and some corals right now I was wondering if I could do
A yasha goby pistol pair
A white spot Pygmy file fish
And I really wanted to do a Swiss guard basslet too
I was wondering if I could do that I think my filtration can handle the bio load I got a skimmer and some mechanical filtration carbon and a uv light and I do water changes weekly but would the fish be aggressive with eachother?
 
This is a 10 gallon tank? The tank is already maxed out with 2 clowns, in fact the tank is rather small for 2 clowns, clowns become territorial and aggressive as they mature. I would not add more fish.
 
If this is a 10g tank I would not add another fish to your tank
You are already maxed out and pushing the stocking with two clowns being in there
 
No this is a 20 gallon tank sorry I should have clarified
Ahh, ok you are good! I wouldn't add the filefish as those are for 30g tanks. The other two fish you would be fine to add!
 
Personally I would keep it to 4 fish for that tank, I know some people have more, but I think 6 would be pushing it too much. IMO your choices look good for a peaceful community tank.
 
2 small clowns will do for now.
As mentioned above, clowns will fight for dominant as they get bigger and the weaker one will need a place to run to.

BTW I dont see this post as an Emergency, but more of a general questions.
Good luck and happy reefing
