Too Many Fish?

[Dansters]

I have a 36 gallon tank of with a ten gallon sump. Would a pair of clownfish, a diamondback goby, and a yellow coris wrasse be too much?

This is a pretty small bioload for a 36 gallon. You could add a couple more fish if they occupy different parts of the tank. Midas Blenny for top swimming and maybe a Royal Gramma for swimming through the rock work. Also a hawkfish or algae blenny would perch on your rockwork.

It depends, like said above seems like you could handle it. Of course make sure about their aggression and whatnot to see if they will be compatible. There’s a page on here about it I’ll link it, there’s a lot of good info. https://www.reef2reef.com/threads/poll-how-many-fish-per-gallon.355641/

I would agree it’s a small bioload, but I’m having issues with GHA so I don’t want to stock too heavily rn.

I think that the bioload is quite reasonable. I'd invest in an Urchin and a boatload of hermits and snails to tackle the uglies.

Definetly get some Urchins, snails and hermits. Emerald and Porcelain Crabs are cool too. Algae blennies will help a lot too.
