29g Bioload

[scoobydoo]

I have a 29 gallon eclipse system, up and running 3 months. I have 25 pounds of live rock, crushed coral and LS. I currently have a cleaner shrimp, pepermint shrimp, haitan anemone, green hermit crab, porcelin crab, chocolate chip starfish (who stays on the glass), a brittle starfish, scooter blennie and firefish gobie. I have a 10g QT tank which has 2 false perculas and a yellow clown gobie. Any suggestions or problems you see???

I would say as long as you stay on top of everything you will be fine. I had a 20 gallon long with a precula clown, blue damsel, and a baby yellow tang for over a year and everything was fine. There were also 6 hermitt crabs, 1 brittle star, and a peppermint shrimp. I am however in the process of moving everything into a 55 gallon as my tang has grown pretty fast. I hope the 55 will last me more than a year.

:nope: Not a great thing to do. :nope:
scoobydoo, what kind of lighting do you have on that tank? Anemones need lots of powerful lights. And plz don't start a second post about the same questoins. thx

It has an original floruscrent bulb and I replaced a bulb with a 50/50 coral sun bulb 10K. I assume your asking because of the anemone. I got it on 5/20/04, is eating regularly (I hand feed it), has grown in size is currently at the top of my live rock in a hole it found. I think its okay.
When you say "plz don't start a second post about the same questoins" do you mean not to post in the other forums??
