Is this too much Bio-load at one time?

Two 6 inch Clownfish in a 20 gallon is really pushing it IMO.Clarkis are one of the more aggresive Clowns.I would say any other fish in the tank would be in trouble.(there are exceptions)

 

Dude is that a joke???1 fish per 10 gallon??He can have two Queen Triggers??I would hardly call that a guidline.:

Guys these blanket rules on fish stocking really have no meaning.Mostly stocking or overstocking a tank comes down to species,system specs., and compatability.

 

Do you have a powerhead agitating the surface?

 

Yup, please read the entire quote. I said the same thing as you but in more words. =P

 

I agree

 

Yep I do

 

with the amount an frequency of water changes you have little or no bio load. cutting back on the amount of livestock and not doing water changes as often will be better for the beneficial biologic bacteria needed to sustain the system.

or you can keep up the water changes and put half the oceans worth of fish in there, lmao

 

Another "guideline" one inch of fish per ten gallons. HEHE have fun with that one and best of luck with the tank. PICS!

 

Also I should have mentioned this. I'm buying a Mr.Aqua 25g cube so they'll be going right into that since I'll be ordering both fish and tank at the same time.
