So i am setting up a 10 gallon tank with a 5.5 gallon sump/refrig ,15 lbs live rock ,20x tank volume flow.
i am thinking of keeping some polyps and maybe some lps.


Can i have 2 clowns,whatchman goby and pistol/cleaner shrimp.
Hey umm well i am kinda confused do cleaner skunks pair up with wachman or is that only pistol.

Is there room with the clowns and whatchman for a fire fish my mom loves them and since i am 14 that means i get another $20 for making her happy.
 
You can only have the pair of clowns with that size tank. I'm planning to get a pair for me. Firefish need a minimum of 20-30 gallon tank.
 
Thats a lotta fish in a 10g, even with a little sump. I'd stick to a goby/shrimp pair and a single firefish, or perhaps a smaller basslet
 
For my 10 gallon tank with a 5.5 gallon sump/refrig ,15 lbs live rock ,20x tank volume flow could i have 3 or 4 fire fish and a wachmen goby

This sounds cool because i read that fire fish swimm in schools.
Will that set up work or should i just go with 2 clowns.

I want something that my frends will think is cool and has alot of personality.

Not to be rude or anything but as I posted before firefish need atleast 20-30gallons. Getting 4 or 5 is crossing the line. You should just stick with the pair of clowns. And there is no need for your friends to think your cool by looking at your fish tank. Try jumping off the roof or something that always works :good:


On a more serious note...

Ya just stick with the clowns and you will be fine :) Plus 4-5 firefish is a lot of money. Your friends will think your cool if you give them the money instead of spending it on the firefish :fun:

Ok well ninja

What i meant by friends is my girl friend and she loves animals a total animal lover dous the hole bit protests ,works at shelter you get the point .

And every source i have read or heard says that fire fish do well in 10 gallon tanks and that you can keep them is sets of 2 or 3 in a 10. But your right clowns are the way to go .

Ya and my friends would like the money from 4 or 5 firefish lol.

:lol: :lol:
