Just curious, been into SW tanks now for about 2yrs and have had my 65g going strong now for 1.5yrs...

I have 6 fish, with 3 inverts (2 shrimp, 1 star) ....

Can I add 1 more? Depends on size? Or have i reached my limit?? :thinking:

Definitely depends on the prospective size of the fish you choose. What are you thinking about adding?
I keep 11 fish in my 60 and worry that it is overstocked.

I believe it all depends on the bioload, subject to the amount of biological/mechanical filtration, and type of fish you want to have.
