Stocking check

[dedragon]

What gobies could I do in my stock b/c idk what kind to get. I like green line and blue neon and there are other kinds I like too, I want one that is small but won’t hide 99.99999% of the time and just go under the live rock never to be seen again

 

[Uncle99]

I’d get them all..... and if you hide in a corner, they will all come out!

Problem fully solved.

 

[dedragon]

just checking the stocking looks like
1 small goby
1 diamond or orange spotted
2 cling fish
either 1 wrasse or 1 chalk bass
?
i never had the diamond goby but maybe someone who has had them can chime in, but stocking seems good to me with this

 

[dedragon]

any dragonette or goby that eats only copepods is going to be off the list though as a 20 gallon is extremely hard to keep population up enough for the fish, without dumping like $20 of live copepods in per month, so be careful when looking at dietary restrictions of fish as well. Not familiar with cling fish personally either

 

[NoahLikesFish]

No it’s gonna be a orange spot blenny 1 small goby a mckorsk wrasse a chalk bass and then a pair of clingfish

Clingfish eat parasites and pods but will eat anything you give them

Sorry to be late to the game but the ONLY wrasses that would be appropriate in this size tank are possum wrasses or a pink streaked wrassse. Cirrhilabrus, Paracheilinus and Halichoeres are not going to work in a 20L unfortunately.

 

[NoahLikesFish]

Pink streak wrasse is cirrhilabrus

 

[NoahLikesFish]

I think fairy or flasher could work easily.

sorry confused it with the goby, idk though hard to say my blennies have actually been pretty active in the past but havent had that specific one. Pink streaked profile is bellow

Problem fully solved.

Wdym get them all

 

[dedragon]

the only one I would even think would be the carpenters or mccoskers for flashers but i havent housed them so i am not sure. I would trust what saltyhog says though, salty is well known and knows more about flashers and fairys than me

 

[NoahLikesFish]

I’m going to stick to my idea becsuse I’ve gotten some pretty good feedback from it and my friend here said that if I used lots of LR (I’m using lots of lr and other things to make hides) I should be okay with the stock

 

[NoahLikesFish]

They both get 3” max

 

[NoahLikesFish]

Same with fairys

 

[rhines]

did you decide on no clownfish?

 

[NoahLikesFish]

Tomaz!

 

[NoahLikesFish]

Yes I dont want them to bully me

 

[NoahLikesFish]

Or other fish
