too much fish?

[anndi]

I was looking at an office tank where my husband works today....is this too much fish in a 29 gallon?

 

1 purple firsfish

1 lawnmower blenny

1 false percula

1 angelfish...black and silver, sort of looked like a freshwater angel.

 

Just curious.

I would think the first three would be fine. Not sure about the 'angel'... kinda interested in what kind of fish that was... could you search WetWebMedia and find a pic, or are you going to make me do it?

my bet would be a Banggai cardinal ???

Good guess... how big was it, anndi? Draw us a pic in MS Paint

yup thats the one, banggai cardinal. looked it up...i had no idea that a 29 could house all of that. i thought the lawnmower blenny needed a big tank with lots of algae.......wish i could decide what to put in my 24..i change my mind everyday.

 

 

by the way, your photography is amazing, jeremai.

Yeah, if it's a Banggai, I would scrap the blenny. You're right, they do best in large tanks with lots of microalgae. Some feed on sheets, I believe, so who knows?
