Id say around 100-250. They suggest 1-2lbs or live rock per gallon of water.

 

[sjgsm]

its all fish....20-30 should be perfect for that tank... im going reef in my 35 so ill have 40-45 lbs sooner or later

 

[swimrnum1]

if i only got one clwon would that free up enough room to get a pair of;
pair of bangais
pair of pajama
1 pygmy angel and another small gobie er somein like that>??

 

[swimrnum1]

anyone have any experience comments or info about maybe adding an anthia to my tank?

 

[viet-tin]

If you get a pair of banggais and the pajamas, they might fight and kill each other.

 

[swimrnum1]

i meant one or the other

 

[viet-tin]

Oh ok then your list looks fine.

 

[swimrnum1]

so would you prefer the pair of bangai or the pair of pj?

 

[viet-tin]

I prefer the banggai

 

[swimrnum1]

so u think the pair of bangai will fit in my tank?

 

[viet-tin]

sure why not.

 

[swimrnum1]

so could i get
pair of clowns
royal gramma
and pair of cards

 

[viet-tin]

Sure if thats all your going to get for fish. It sounds perfectly fine.

 

[viet-tin]

Jus make sure you have good equipment and you should be fine.

 

[swimrnum1]

and the chjocolate chip star ....if you count that a fish. ive been browsing other threads and people conmstantly talk about water changes?

 

[viet-tin]

You should change about 10-20% once a week

 

[swimrnum1]

how would you do that

 

[swimrnum1]

i j ust picked up that book the Conscientous Marine Aquarist.
It suggests an undergravel filter for a tank my size.
i am having second thoughts on getting all of these fish. now just for a beginner tank i might just get a pair of clowns and another fish or too. I would get an anemone then and still get live rock any anemone reccomendtaions. What other fish would be okay with the anemone

 

[viet-tin]

I wouldnt suggest an undergravel filter unless you were going with a plenum. If your going with sand then it is not needed. You can get a bubble tip anemone which is very hardy and will host your percs. For the anemone your going to need strong lighting and pristine waters.

 

[swimrnum1]

u can totally disregard my last post
i forgot about the lighting issue.
i am going to scale down on the amount of fish in my tank and make it a true beginner and learning tank, while waiting to get enough money to get my new 55 gallon. so i am probably gonna go with the 2 percs royal gramma and pygmy angel.
how would u feed a chocolate chip star
