    Should I add a fish?

    Right now I've got a 12 g. system with one royal gramma. The system is almost 2 1/2 years old, and I'm thinking about adding another fish (a blue-green chromis) I want to be sure this won't overload the itty bitty system.

    I'm also planning on getting a 30 or 50 g. as soon as the extra cash rolls in. Should I just wait for that before getting the next fish?

    Thanks,
    -Amanda

    Also:

    Do you have a quarantine tank?

    If I was about to upgrade and didn't have a quarantine tank, I would wait to add any fish until what I have is moved into the new tank.....AND IS STABLE!!!!!

    Then I would be able to use the existing tank as a quarantine tank for the new arrivals.

    And WELCOME TO REEFLAND!
