Is this a good stocking level?


The new tank (an upgrade from my nano tank) is an Aquamedic Percula 90 (holds about 85G US). With 90lbs Aragamax sand and 90lbs of rocks. It will be a reef setup and I would like to keep the following fishes:

1x Yellow tang
2x Perc Clowns
1x Green Clown Goby
1x Six line wrasse
2x Orchid Dottybacks

Is this too much? I require the water parameters to be as good as possible for the corals and manage to keep a few nice fishes. What do you think?

Any input is appreciated.

Sounds fine, except two clowns should be a "pair" of clowns and the dotties also have to be a pair.
If they're not paired up, they'll most likely fight.

sounds like a very reasonable stocking level.

what everyone else said about compatability.

Thanks for the replies. The two dottybacks will be tank raised by a fellow UK reefer. He is going to supply paired up specimens. He has supplied to a few people already and they have reported good things.
