I currently have a 75 gallon tank. For filtration I am using 65 pounds of live rock, a Fluval 404 canister filter, and an AquaC Remora Pro skimmer.

The tank contains the following creatures:

1 Neon Dottyback
1 Yellow Tang
1 Blue Damsel
3 Camel Shrimp
1 Scarlet Skunk Cleaner Shrimp
1 Bahama Starfish
3 Turbo Snails
12 tiny hermit crabs
12 tiny Margarita Snails

I would like to add the following:
2 Ocellaris Clownfish
1 Hippo Tang
1 Flame Angel
1 Scarlet Skunk Cleaner Shrimp
1 Mandarin Goby

If I add all those fish to what I have, will I overload my tank?

Might I have room for more? If so, what would you suggest. Or, would you suggest alternatives to what I'm thinking about getting?

Thanks.

Hello dtate and :welcome:

In my opinion your tank would be overstocked, but it is really up to you to decide how much maintenance your will to do.

I have 3 fish in my 75G. An Atlantic Blue Tang, an Oceleris Clown, and a Manderin. I generally only do a WC every couple of months.

I had 14 fish in that tank at one point and it was overstocked and the hair algea nightmare was awful.

You just have to get a balance that you can live with.

Those WC's get old in time.

The hippo will definately get too big, and make sure your tank has been established for a year before adding the mandarine and make sure you have a great pod population for him. The rest are fine
