Stocking 45 gallon tank

[shanes]

Hey I’ve recently got a jbj 45 gallon cube. I have a pair of clowns and and small goby not sure what he is but it’s super small I am transferring that to the new tank. Some inverts I have are emeralds crabs an urchin and a fire shrimp. I am trying to figure out another or a couple cool fish I could add to the tank and not have any problems. Any ideas?

Thank you! You have a cube 45 gallon? And the diamond gobby has enough sand area?

With cube tanks I always suggest people stock them like they are half the size they are by volume. That said one of my favorite tanks is a 60g 24” cube. With two clowns I would look at something like a few Pajama Cardinals, or anything else that is not an active swimmer.

I had a Diamond Goby in a 24” cube for over 7 years before he disappeared.

If that’s the case I would probably just get some kind of Blenny and call it a day.

Gotcha. Currently there’s a starry blenny in there but I plan to get rid of him. I wanted to replace him with a diamond goby

Have some fun with it then. Get a Frogfish and reset afterwards.

So thats a pygmy angel then correct?
Grab a Midas Blenny as they are cool and colorful and call it a day

Personally I would do a Pistol Goby pairing. I’f I’m able to get a tank around your size that’s what I’m planning on :)

Or you could always get a smaller wrasse

Jealous of you tbh. (Landlord is strict on tanks)
