I count 8, and they are all fairly small. I say that without knowing what kind of clowns though.
I think it should be okay.

This is where personal preference comes in to play. I personally would probably not put more than 5 fish in a 55 gallon tank, but that is because my tanks are more about corals than fish. I like having just enough fish to have an interesting tank without having a heavy bioload. That way it keeps the water cleaner for the sake of my corals.
By comparison, I have 2 fish in a 37g and 9 fish in a 100g.
But it is entirely your choice.

they are occellaris

 

[nycbob]

most of them r very small fish, thats why i dont think it would be an issue.

I have a 50 gal tank and i have 5 fish,because that all my system can support, if i go higher my param will tell me!!But for another set up that could be done,maybe add one at the time and your param will tell you!!
