Stocking

Hey all. 8 month tank setup, just gave it a deep clean, chemiclean, decent water change and added fritz zyme, it's looking slick. I've had 2 Orange Storm clowns and the Black Widow anemone about 7 months doing great.

Within the last month I added 2 cherub angels and one royal Gramma.

Is this too much fish for a 24 gallon, or do you think it's ok leaving it at that with no more fish?

the suggested tank size for the angel is 55 gallons for one, and you have 2. I don't think its a good idea and I would return them, we have to respect the animals. Keep the RG and pick 1 or 2 small suitable fish for the tank size.
 
Sounds good. Thanks guys. I'm moving in a month and the tank is coming with me. When I break it down to move I'll return the angels. I would like to keep the RG with the clowns but it might be pushing it. The nem has hosted the clowns for 6+ months
 
Also thanks for the positive criticism and keeping things kind! Goes a long way. Appreciate your advice.
 
Clowns and royal gramma might be fine in a 24 gallon if the rockwork is sufficient. If not, then a sandbed dweller should. A yellow watchman goby or something if you have a spot he can dig a cave.

I do, but I've lost two gobies in the past, they just keep jumping and my dog finds them

Would these be fine for a month at this state? I'd hate to break everything down to get these angels out just to break it down before the move in 3 weeks or so. I'd rather just return them when I prep the move. What do you think?

I'd love a gobie but as is im using egg crate for the top
