Stocking my 35.2

[pauldio1482]

Hello I’m new to saltwater. And to this site. I have a question reguarding stocking a 35.2 gallon waterbox it’s cycled and I added 3 red leg hermit crabs 3 blue leg hermit crabs 2 turbo snails and one black comb tooth blenny. And I have 1 royal gramma in a quarantine tank. I only add as far as fish. 1 every 2 weeks into my quarantine tank 20 gal but all the above with the exception of the gramma are in my waterbox. Now with that being said I have my sites on adding last 2 clown fish. 1 watchmen gobby and a six line wrasse. Do you guys think I could pull that off? Until I set up my 60 gallon breeder? Please let me know. And if not I am open to suggestions. HELP!

I would probably skip on the 6 line for now as they are HYPER aggressive!

Hello. Yea I heard mixed info on them upon more research. I have a royal gramma. So far all he does is hide. He was eating when they fed him.just before I bought him I ask them lfs.anyways you know of any online vendors that quarantine before they ship? Right now I’m looking at tsm seems pretty good?

I don't think I would add 4 fishes at once, your tank doesn't have much rock and no hiding space at all, if there's any aggression, a fish has no where to hide.

I would stick with your plan of adding one at a time, or else add some more rock. For biofiltration purpose anyways, you should have about 30 lbs of rock. (50-60 lbs in the 60 gallon)

Thank you for your reply. I may miss spoke 1 at a time in a 20 gallon quarantine. Then into my 35.2 waterbox and down the road a bit then a 60 gallon. But reguardless I agree with what you said. 1 at a time .
