Good Evening Aquarists,

I was wondering how many marine fish can I put in my 29 g tank? Its basically a fish only tank with live rock and live sand. I like Clowns, Gobies, Angelfishes, and other small fishes. I was thinking like 5 or 6?

More like 3-4 safely. And the angel MUST be a Dwarf such as Coral Beauty or Flame. Clowns should be either True or false percs as the others get too large. Smaller Watchman gobys like the yellow watchman are good.

IMO (And I have a running 29G) I would have a Flame Angel, A Pair of True Percs & A Yellow watchman Goby (With a pistol shrimp).

also look into firefish, royal gramma, and some others like that, keri had a great suggestion, but im not a huge fan of clowns, so i would go with a fire and a gramma. just my opinion.
