it all depends on what corals you want if you want sps you probably dont want a real high bio load. lps are a lot hardier and so are softies so you could prob have more fish. it also depends how big of fish you are wanting. and how big the fish are you have now. plus you need to research them all to make sure they will all get a long. what is your stock list now as far as fish and coral?

how long has this tank been set up? the reason i ask is because the mandarin and the 2 blennies eat a lot of pod's and if your tank is not established it prob doesn't hav a whole lot of pod's.so they could very well eat all the pod's and starve to death. and i would get rid of the damsel's they are mean. and there's not really a set limit on how many fish you can have in a sw tank. there is a lot of things that come into play.do regular water testing and make sure your level's are staying in liveable levels and add fish slow!!! and also normal size tell's me nothing.
