Okay, I probably should have done this BEFORE buying stuff and having stuff not make it, but can anyone give me some pointers on what I can have in a 5 gallon AGA.
The tank is about 2 or 3 months old, all the parameters have settled a few weeks ago. I have about 6 pounds of live rock in the display and 5 pounds of rubble and some chaeto in a fuge running at about 50 gph. I also have an 80 gph HOB filter, but i took the cartridge out and only have the "bio media" mesh in it right now.
Stock list:
2 Yellow tail blue damsels about 1 inch (1 definitely deceased as of this posting, cant find the other either, so will update in the morning, they were both happy/healthy this morning).
1 Royal Gramma (1-1/2 inch)
1 Blue leg hermit
1 Scarlet hermit
1 peppermint shrimp
1 certh snail
10 nas snails
5-10 periwinkle snails
1 mushroom
1 small frag of star polyps, about 8 actual polyps.
Water is fine, i think the loss of the fish was a territory issue or a hunger issue.
Anyway, the stocklist minus the YTBD's is that okay for a 5 gallon (basically a royal gramma and CUC)? Should I trade the RG at the LFS for something else? I'm at a loss but don't want to have any more fish not survive under my watch, i hate that
