Hi all,
I have a small question and I'd love to hear some other thoughts about this.
My Reefer 170 is now running for about half a year. About 2 months ago I introduced 2 Darwin Clownfish, with the idea they're pretty hardy which would be a good test.
They're doing great, swimming mostly around near the glass in the front and on the sides always hoping I'll drop some more food in.
I'd like to introduce some more fish. This is currently on my wishlist to add besides the clowns:
- Watchman Goby and Pistol shrimp pair
- Banggai cardinalfish
- Royal gramma
But since clowns can be a bit territorial (and they haven't settled yet for one spot) I'm actually a bit worried if adding the clownfish first was a smart move. What do you think? Could I still make this work?
Also, since I'm struggling to keep the NO3 and PO4 above zero I'm wondering if I could add 2 fishes at once (like to goby schrimp pair + banggai), instead of taking this with intervals of 2 or 3 weeks. Perfectly fine in doings things slowly, but I also think it may help to get my NO3 and PO4 up faster.
