Should i add anymore fish

[BrooklynsReefMan1]

My tank is 20 gallon long it is under 2 65 watt Pc lights under a CoralLife fixture

-20 pounds of live sand

-24 1/2 pounds of live rock

-Large button polyp colony

- Small Gsp super green

-Small flower pot coral Green

-2 hairy small mushrooms

-1 bubble mushroom (i dont know exact name) Maybe you can help

- 1 peppermint shrimp (even tempered only sometimes at night comes out and walks on corals but wont eat or pick at them

-1 yellow watchman goby (hides in shell and holes he made come out when hungry and only croups at the fish when feeding)

-1 purple firefish goby (sweet fish who wont bother anything actually he burrows with the other goby at night!)

-1 male clarkii clownfish (after the LTA died he has been hiding but today came out for a little bit)

-1 XXL Turbo snail (hes the headache of my tank he knocksover alot of rocks in his path for his algea)

-2 wild caught nausiirus snails from long island mastic beach also known as mud snails... they do a better job then the hyge turbo

Any good ideas for more fish i know what corals i want to get but just about fish this time aroundmaybe 1 to 2 more fish or no?

your close to maxed out for a 20 but I think you could get away with another small one (goby)

 

[rookie07]

Id say go for it...somthing small...but im a rookie and I like to overstock....
You are going to get yelled at...
Gd luck

 

[h20 freak]

You would really do better with out it but it would be fine, you should add a refuge/sump so that your not as worried about overstocking

 

[ellebelle]

It depends on several factors:

What kind of filtration are you using?
What kind of corals do you ultimately want to keep?

If you have good filtration and aren't planning to keep any demanding corals, then there is no reason why you couldn't add at least one more fish. Just monitor your levels carefully to make sure you aren't overloading your system. Something small, like another small goby, a small blenny, or other nano fish would be good. You'll only get yelled at if you tell us you've decided to keep something wildly inappropriate for your tank size. Promise.

So far, it looks like you have some a very responsible job.

any ideas as to what fish you would like to add to the group?

 

[Wes]

what are your water parameters?

Fairy Wrasse

i was thinking a fairy wrasse

 

[ellebelle]

Even the smaller fairy wrasses have a minimum tank size of 29g. I think your tank might be a little small for one of them.

Also - do you have your tank completely covered? They will jump. So will your firefish, for that matter.

 

[h20 freak]

Ya wrasses are quite active and he might be happy in that tank and also the activity is more of a bioload,try something mellow like a cardinal(not a wild caught banggai:fishhit

 

[danelam]

what about a seahorse?

 

[jabol]

I would not add another fish. Your clownfish may get aggressive in the future; any wrasse is really a bad idea...

 

[h20 freak]

what about a seahorse?

The others(especially the firefish)would out compete it for food

 

[Sean]

someone did ask this earlier but again
What filtration do you have?
What are your levels?
How often do you do water changes, test, clean filters? If you add fish you may need to do it more often, are you prepared to do this?
Are you planning on an upgrade?
Are you willing to give your first born over to the devil for "the ultimate aquarium"?

Why not add a pistol shrimp. He can share a hole with the yellow watchman. shrimp and goby pairs are a lot of fun.
