So I have a 60g cube with 2 oc clowns six line wrasse and a big cleaner shrimp as well as some hermits and snails. I want to get a red firefish and a yellow watchman goby. Tanks been up 8 months and everything is perfect. Do u think that the extra 2 fish will overstock the tank? I do a 20 percent water change every 2 weeks run a good canister filter and I have just added a protein skimmer today just for that bit easier and cleaner matinance. I also added a big bag of live copepods right into the tank of course some got eaten by the fish but I hope they will populate the tank and help with biodiversity.

So is 5 medium/small fishtoo much for a 60g cube? There is Plenty of space for the fish to swim and hide I just want a nice diversity in fish and a good community reef.
