Tanks been up for about 4 months and have been slowly adding fish and coral. Right now I have a wheelers shrimp goby,tailspot blenny,purple fire fish. Will be adding a yellow clown goby in about a week. I want to add a Royal gramma and a pair of clowns last. My concern is that there won’t be enough space for all of them. I really don’t want to but I may have to hold off on the Royal gramma. Anyone have any thoughts or experiences with this tank and these fish.

I think Tahoe addressed this well. You already are concerned with it being to much.

Are you looking for someone to tell you it's ok to put 7 fish in that tank?

The main problem is the clown pair imo, they alone will be 50% of the bioload once they mature a little bit.

If you are set on the clowns. Id leave the gramma and clown goby out.

Good luck with whatever you decide to do.
 
That tank can fit maybe 3 fish, if you have a lot of rockwork then maybe 4 fish. If you try to fit 7 fish in there IMO it might turn into a battle royale. My 40 gallon has only 5 fish.....

No just some experience with a small tank. I was thinking of skipping the Royal gramma and one of the clowns. What do you think or a pair of clowns without the Royal gramma. I already have the clown goby in quarantine so I’m pretty much stuck with him.
