Stock help 20g

[MikeRowe2024]

I have a 20g H with a 30g sump. Currently have a tailspot blenny, a steinetz goby, pistol shrimp, emerald crab, 3 nass., 2 blue leg, 2 trouchus.
Wondering what else I could add in terms of live stock? It’s FOWLR right now, but I plan on adding coral in a month or so. Pretty busy with class right now.
Thanks!

You should be fine with 2-3 more fish. Clownfish, flame hawkfish, royal gramma, neon dottyback, etc.

I would first monitor nitrates, you do have a sump so export will be pretty easy however you then run into fish aggresion

I would stay away from any more bottom dwellers if possible and look into fish that prefer the mid-higher section of the tank. I personally would leave it where it is for now, especially if it’s working out however if you have your mind set on adding more I think clowns would be the best choice.

If you plan to add corals you should also watch for nutrient rises. More fish=more nitrates and phos. Corals do consume this however you will need a lot of coral to lower it just a little bit. It’s just a few things I thought you should consider

Royal gramma, rainford goby, yellow band possum wrasse

Perhaps consider to add some more rockwork before adding more fish. Not really any hiding spots in your tank (or spaces to glue corals). But I think you can fit 4 or maybe even 5 fish in there.

Thanks, a lot of the things I saw online didn’t have a sump, so it was hard to get solid advice

I have a 25 and have a royal gramma, 2 clowns, a court jester goby, and watchmen goby. I feel like I’m tight but it is working
