hello I have a full reef tank set up for over 4 months now. primarily euphyllia with a big wad of GSP. it is a 29g biocube with a refugium in the back and 2 occellaris clownfish. 1 10g water change is done weekly (I feel like that's overkill for 2 clowns but I want my fish to be healthy) instant ocean reef salt is used and ro/di if I make it, regular RO water if I decide to get it from work. I am wondering if any fish can be kept in that tanksize with 2 occellaris clowns who are aggressive and have killed a few fish (flame angel, and a fu Manchu lionfish) not sure if they bullied them to death or stressed them to death. any help would be greatly appriceated. not sure if I should just leave this tank as a clown tank.

Give me all the Euphyllia
Welcome to R2R!! I agree with crabs at looking into gobies, the smaller wrasses may outgrow the 29 pretty quick. Clowns can be very territorial and in a tank that size they may be claiming the whole thing. My 2 small clowns claim about 1/3 of the front of the tank where all the euphillia is.
