Too many fish in my tank?

[alvssaxo]

I have a 32g biocube. I’m wondering if I may have too many fish from researching… I have 2 clowns, 2 green cromis, a royal gramma, & a watchman goby. Opinions please?

also a pincushion urchin, cleaner shrimp, and many snails and hermits. If that matters TIA

I have a 38 and have a shrimp, Royal Gramma, 2 Clowns, one Wrasse, and 2 Gobies. I think you're fine.

Depends....having trouble keeping nutrients in check, bickering among tank mates?

I like to suggest lightly stocking, I have two mature clowns and a sixline wrasse in a 29 gallon. If I didn't have the wrasse I would have maybe two more small fish, 4 fish total.

All depends on tank maturity, filtration, territorial disputes, etc. I have two firefish, two clowns, a yellow watchman goby, and a blue star leopard wrasse. Works out well, but my tank is many years old, and gets 25% water changes each week.

One of my tanks is 24"x20"x20" about 40g total volume. I have 2 mollies, lawnmower blenny, Chalk bass, pigmy wrasse, fire shrimp and a copper banded butterfly. I feed heavily and have to dose phosphate to keep P measurable and nitrates run single digits and occasionally need to be dosed and I do not run a skimmer. Tank has been running for over 3 years and I don't feel it is over stocked.

If your nutrients are in check, I think that stocking density is perfectly fine.

Compared to the ocean all our tanks are overstocked. If your water parameters are solid and the fish aren’t beating each other up from lack of space, you’re good to go.

I think you are at the limit.

Personally I think its fine, but I wouldn't add any more. I have 5 fish in my 32
