Decided I was tired of changing the water in a bunch of smaller tanks around the house so I broke down a bunch of my smaller tanks and bit the bullet on a 120g tank (24x24x48).
Started ~20 lbs of Live Sand, the rest bagged "live" sand. Have around 50-60 lbs of live rock from my other established tanks already in the 120g and I dosed Microbacter7 for the first three weeks that the tank was up (the same brand of bacteria I originally used to seed all of the live rock).
I currently have two clownfish and a yellow tang in the tank. The Yellow Tang is the newest addition, so I want to start adding livestock at a reasonable pace before the Yellow Tang starts to think it owns the whole tank...
I want to keep the stock list pretty simple. This is what I am planning. If I am making a grave mistake, someone please chime in haha.
2 Clownfish
1 Yellow Tang
1 Purple Dottyback
1 Firefish
2-3 Pajama Cardinals
1 Sixline Wrasse
Then One Of These Two
1 Blenny (either Tailspot or Sailfin)
1 Yellow Watchman Goby
That to me seems pretty well stocked. I know I would need to add more live rock to the sump and the display in order to handle all of these fish.
Is this too much? Just right?
