Max for a 15g?

[bluetangyellow]

What's the max number of fish that can go in a 15g tall? I would like 2 true percs (mated pair), a neon goby, and I was wondering if I could put another small goby, or a bicolor or scooter blenny. Thanks for any advice!

I see no problem with the percs and neon goby. IMO no more than that.

Okay. I was hoping to be able to add a blenny to help keep the sand looking good. I can't add one? Thanks for your advice!

I am setting up a 16g bow and I'm going to stick with 3 fish total. Probably a pair of percs and a clown goby. IMO and from what everyone has told me, a 4th fish would probably be pushing it.

Okay, thanks.:nope:

I think you will be ok with 4 fish(I have 3 in my 10g),just keep up with your water changes.Also,I would buy a skimmer.
Oh and make sure the fish you buy don't get too big when they reach adult size.

I have a thread in the Fish Discussion board and it would seem as though people are thinking four fish in my 29g is questionable. Four in a 15g seems a bit much--especially since it's a tall. If anything, you want a tank wider--not taller. I'm with bigarn on this one.

Okay, thanks for your replies ! I was just thinking that I might be able to get away with a scooter blenny because neon gobies have such a small bioload. I'm getting ready to upgrade to a 46gBF so once I get that setup I'll move everything over.
