Djm9288 Posted June 3, 2002 Share Posted June 3, 2002 Could i have in a 10 gallon 2 ocellaris clowns. and either 2 clown gobies or 3 neon gobies? Daniel Link to comment
mattdog Posted June 3, 2002 Share Posted June 3, 2002 That would be way too many fish IMO....two at most. Link to comment
eferna Posted June 3, 2002 Share Posted June 3, 2002 I agree with mattdog have 4-5 fish is way too much fir a 10 Gal. The two clowns would be okay and maybe 1 goby. Link to comment
SaltyDog Posted June 3, 2002 Share Posted June 3, 2002 I had the same question for my LFS last week, and as an FYI, they told me two clowns would probably be all I would want to do. I imagine a goby on top of that would depend of room available in the tank. (ie. LR, Sand Bed depth, pumps, etc. etc.) Link to comment
SLOreefer Posted June 3, 2002 Share Posted June 3, 2002 i think you could do 2 clowns and 2 neon gobies pending you setup a refugium. this will creat a higher water area and a copepod factory for natural feeding and also if you put macro in it reduce trates. it can be done due to the neon gobies small size and them really taking up 0tank space.

Sahin Posted June 3, 2002 Share Posted June 3, 2002 I agree, I would at most go with 2 fish in there. They'd be much happier too, as the bio-load otherwise would be too much for that little tank. Remeber the clowns get big as well, they dont stay the 2inches you get them at. Always base your stocking level on the final fish size. Link to comment
jay2k2 Posted June 3, 2002 Share Posted June 3, 2002 what about 3 green chromis in a Ten?! thats what i'm gonna do! Link to comment
Djm9288 Posted June 3, 2002 Author Share Posted June 3, 2002 Im set on having 2 ocellaris and 1 clown goby. Im going to have 15 pounds of Live rock Daniel Link to comment
printerdown01 Posted June 4, 2002 Share Posted June 4, 2002 be weary of the clowns pestering the glown goby... -just a though... I know that clowns are "peaceful" but I have had problems in the past with mixing a small maroon and a clown goby... Link to comment
Djm9288 Posted June 4, 2002 Author Share Posted June 4, 2002 but that was a MAROON clown, these are peaceful false percs Link to comment
quiksilver5768 Posted June 4, 2002 Share Posted June 4, 2002 true...MAROONS are very aggresive. The most aggresive clown fish actually. I have 2 percs and a coral beauty in my 10. 2 percs and 2 clowns gobies can work fine as long as u can prived enough food for them and deal with the bioload... Link to comment
Djm9288 Posted June 4, 2002 Author Share Posted June 4, 2002 how would you reccommend dealing with the bioload? Link to comment
