I would say add two more and then stop, just make sure you don't have a crustecean eatin' fish like a puffer or hawk, b/c they will be gone.

Also if you plan to have more invertabrates make sure that there is enough room for them too.Hmm if you have any crabs make sure the wont go after the shrimp.

Go for it.

I was just wondering how the Maroon Clowns and the Coral Beauty get along in your 29 gallon Reef Tank?
Those are two of the fish I would like to add sometime in the future.

they squabble once in a while but nothing serious... overall, they are both doing great... the coral beauty spends most of his days just grazing and the maroons just cuddle all day long with their host anemone...

I would really love to have a mated pair for Maroons.....how long have you had them?
