i think the last link will make you understand yes you can be caught.
this goes for those of any age and if the site has not done anything about it then it can be take further by the target or by other memebers of the site.
just thought you would like to laugh at jail time.
thank you i was saying nemo my way and im going to keep saying that and there all attacking me because i say it that way... man

The problem is it's a 29gal Nano (or at least I'm assuming it's one of those all-in-one nanos?). If it was a nice 29gal glass tank, you could add a sump, and it's a bit larger in general, as a 29gal nano has the filter volume calculated as well.
Though, with the fish you listed, I don't feel space is going to be too much of issue, if you add a healthy amount of live rock (north of 40 pounds), keeping all those mouths fed, will be. I like your second 'final' list. I would recommend you either get rid of the hi-fin goby or the blenny and not have both. If you did away with the goby/pistol, you could do 2 clowns and the blenny.
Not exactly....
FWIW, fishes is a word. It's used as a verb, 'My uncle fishes for a living.' And a noun, when you're talking about different species of fish, as a group. 'My 125gallon has 12 fish
comprising of 5 different fishes
; angels, tangs, triggers, puffers, and gobies.
Another example would, be there are over 25,00 different types of fishes
in the ocean (lumping multiple groups into one). There are several million fish
of the genus Thalassoma (talking about one group).

exactly it depends how the sentence is made and how u use it

Second of all people asking for advice even if they are smart or not smart big tank or small tank or even changing sizes are not retards.
they are seeking advice so you can help them other new poeple are going to read this and go i'm not posting on this site due to reading this post or will think they can handle it them self as they will get abuse from members like your self.
Also to put in your 29g i would not put any clown/nemo/Ocellaris as they will out grow that tank unless your putting them into your 175g my personal opinion i would buy "Citron (yellow) Goby" as these are quite small and perhaps a leopard wrasse the leopard and Citron goby might fight but i would only get a max of 3-4 small fish the a starfish perhaps a serphant starfish the a few snails "turban" maybe 10-15 and possibly a few red and blue hermits crabs perhaps 5 blue 5 red this is what i would do with a small tank like yours.
thats just my advice for your tank... hope it works out.

thank u

True enough, but it still would have been fish, not fishes
in the context you used in your previous posts. Fishes is used for different groups of different fish. All the different fish in an aquarium is still one group.
Anyway back t the main point, any decisions on your final, final, stocklist now?

i am going to get a 29g oceanic biocube and making it a reef tank.
question is how much fish is to much?
im going to name fish tell me if this is to much or if i can get more or where the cut off is..... plzzzzzzz give me ur input
2 nemos - max 3"
1 cout jester goby - max 2.5"
1 green clown goby - max 1.5"
1 panda goby - max 1"
2 purple firefish - max 3"
2 bangaii cardinal - max 3"
1 hi fin red banded goby - max 2"
1 flame angel - max 4"
this i would think, would be my cut off but not sure ill keep going

1 yellow head jawfish - max 4"
1 smith blenny - max 3"
1 yellow stripe clingfish - max 3"
ok thats all that intrests me and can fit in my tank with a different variety then well... all that i listed
 
ok i really want to keep the hi fin goby and the pistol i believe they will stick to a hole and not stray to far from it.
i picked that blenny(tail spot blenny) because it doesnt grow very large compared to the other blennies reaching 5" and havent heard anything agressive about him knowing i have a firefish and a goby in the list which most other blennies are know for bullying
29g nano tank
the inverts i was thinking 1 emerald crab, pompom crab, maximus clam, and a fire shrimp. ooo and the clean up crew(wat do u think is right)-18 blue leg hermits, 1 lettuce slug and i think thats it
wats ur position on this

Replace all 18 hermit crabs with snails.
Hermit crabs terrorize corals and will kill most snails when they get hungry or need a shell.

Yea, that's sort of why I said pick either the goby or blenny, because of aggression from the blenny. I'm not exactly familiar with that particular blenny, but I did have a LMB that I thought was also 'friendly' till he started biting my clownfish. I guess if you added the blenny last, it might work.
For the CUC, I'm not a big fan (mobile inverts in general). Generally I just keep as many different type of snails as I can find, mexican turbo, asteria, cerith, nassarius, and one conch. With a couple hermits, for my 29gal, I had 10, but would recommend less, just 5 scarletts would be my pick. Absolutely not a fan of true crabs, if I had to pick one, after the tank establishes for a while (9 months) a porcelain crab would be cool. The lettuce slug, aka lettuce nudibranch, usually are fairly hard to keep, any strong flow and they get blow around, into pumps/overflows. The clam is a really bad idea, as those need strong lighting (HO T5's with individual reflectors or halides).

i think it would be fishes since i named 12+ animals plus having all those animals not going to go into the tank now if i said ooo help me with these fishes only being the cardinal, the nemo, the firefish, and a blenny then yes i belive it would be fish but w/e thats not the issue here
im not sure on the fish stock list i showed now inverts and a clean up crew hope u see it and respond i wat to see wat u and the rest say

You will also most likely need halides to sustain that clam for very long, fyi

isnt the nano tank good enough light for the clam i cant post the web but well see oceanicsystemsdotcom - check for the nanos from oceanic and ooo check products-aquariums-nano-29g
would that be enough or no
im hoping to stick a refugium

ok i listed a thing u could go to check if that lighting is strong enough and well if its not then its out i wouldnt want to kill it

i would add the blenny last so yes

I have a Biocube myself, a 14 gallon in my case. Unfortunately there is not a chance that you could sustain a clam with stock lighting, same goes for sps corals
The good news is that there are many lighting upgrades that you can look into down the road if you decide a clam or sps is something that you wish to pursue.
