Dennis_said Posted July 1, 2003 Share Posted July 1, 2003 Yo yo, I like the look of schools... but yeah, I have a small tank... so is there any type of fish where I can keep 3-4 of?? Green Chromis? Clown Gobies? Anything else that people had tried and had success w/ them schooling up? MODIFICATION at the bottom Link to comment
Jandree22 Posted July 1, 2003 Share Posted July 1, 2003 yes and no.... Yes, I think you'd be able to keep 3-4 chromis's in a 15gal. No, I don't think in a reef system. The bioload of that much fish wouldn't make corals too happy I don't think Link to comment
reefan Posted July 1, 2003 Share Posted July 1, 2003 Umm, the easy answer is no. Fish school as a defensive tactic they would not feel the need to school in a 15. Not to mention the problem of getting five or more fish in a 15. Although it could be done, and probably already has. JJ Link to comment

Dennis_said Posted July 1, 2003 Author Share Posted July 1, 2003 3-4 is too much of a bioload? Blah, even w/ a fuge and piccolo skimmer working? Link to comment

Dennis_said Posted July 2, 2003 Author Share Posted July 2, 2003 Hey guys, so I'm planning on this.. in my 15g long 2 Cleaner Shrimp Snail only cleaner crew.. maybe 10 snails in all (dunno which yet) Variety of coral frags (hoping they will grow out for me) (Xenia, mushrooms, polyps, and maybe a hard coral) 2 Perc Clowns (I think they're the ones that stay the smallest?) 1 Royal Gramma or 1 Firefish or 2 clown gobies Do you guys think my bioload can take it? Or if there's enough space overall? IT's a nice 24 inches long (got a fuge and skimmer working too) That's all... and yes, this will probably be added over a good couple month period to not spike the bioload LMK if it's too much tho, sometimes I get greedy Link to comment
