Another stocking thread

[Jbissell1289]

Sooo I’m trying to decide how many fish for my new reefer... lol 21 gallon display with 7 gallon sump. Have a sicce syncra 3.0(over board, but what they had for used equipment when getting the tank). So display turnover is some stupid high number. I’m estimating 20-25 times per hour 525 gph after lift height loss estimate. I’m not planning on running a skimmer as I’ll be doing a 5 gallon/week water change and running a fuge with lots of rubble and macro.

So my stocking thoughts are.

Royal gramma basslet (only current resident)
2xblack-ray gobies(to be paired with a pair of candy cane pistols)
Purple firefish
Ocellaris clownfish

I’d love to add a carpenters wrasse... but I’m thinking that will be way too much in stead of just too much.

Thoughts? Condemnations? Accusations? Lol

With a wrasse you would definitely need a top. I think you might need to choose either clown or wrasse.

My Krakenreef lid is getting here on Thursday. That is what I was figuring would happen.

I wouldn’t put any wrasse in a 20 gal display except maybe a Wetmorellla. Carpenter wrasse needs room to swim.
