    55 gallon stock list

    55 gallon
    apx. 60 lbs LR ( Figi & Marshall Island )
    apx 1" LS
    AC 70 HOB
    2X Maxi Jet 1200 head
    AC Remora HOB w/ Maxi Jet 1200

    I currently have:

    1 Fox Face
    2 Ocellaris Clownfish
    1 Yellowtail Blue Damsel fish

    I was wondering if I can safely add (without overstocking):

    1 Raccoon Butterflyfish OR a Auriga Butterflyfish
    2 more Yellowtail Blue Damsel fish
    2 more Clownfish

    I have already researched the compatibility of the fish.

    And I understand certain Damsels are mean and cannot be mixed, however I believe the Blue yellow tail variety like the company of their own kind.
    Thank you,
    -Tina

    i would drop the damsels and go with blue/green chromis as they are much more tank friendly, other then that i dont know about putting two pairs of clowns in a tank that size

    If it's two more clownfish of the same species and they're all small, then you should be good. If it's a pair from another species, though, I'd avoid it in a small tank. Otherwise, I think you're good. My 55 has a similar load, with more coral.

    Just tell your wife that having a tank teaches you all sorts of new DIY skills...which will save lots of money around the house...so you can buy more stuff for your tank...so you can learn more skills...

    Oh O.k.
    Thanks!
    I love the Damsels' color.
    I think I'll put in the Clownfish next, then the Damsels and the Butterfly last.
