27 gallon tank (I believe it's 27 gallons I bought it 2nd hand and it was advertised as 29 gallons but it looks like one of the older marineland 27 gallon cubes.

Current stocking
2 occellaris clownfish
1 peppermint shrimp


Stocking ideas

Diamond watchman goby
Chalk bass

I think that is about it for fish. I would probably add some additional cuc as necessary.

Coral stocking

Mushrooms and leathers. Was thinking of starting with a Kenya tree. I come from freshwater with live plants and love the idea of corals taking over the tank.

What are the dimensions of the tank? Taking LxWXH in inches x 0.00434 will give you gallons.

Chalk bass is fine. If you see the diamond goby (not a watchman since they don't pair with shrimp) eat at a store, then it will be okay. Some don't eat and just sift sand and starve.

Looks like its 20x18x21. I punched in those measurements into google and it looks like an oceanics 30 gallon cube. A little bigger than I expected :)
