    30 l sump+refugium

    up and running for about 7 months now.

    Live stock:

    1 diamond goby
    2 yellow tale blue damsels
    2 percula clowns
    1 flame angel
    2 mandarins (male and female)

    CUC

    2 skunk shrimps
    2 blood shrimps
    3 peppermint shrimp
    about 8 snails of different sorts

    CORALS AND INVERTS

    4 BTA (green,red,pink, orange......i have a weak spot for BTAs)
    1 green acro
    1 galaxia
    1 torch
    1 hammer
    sevral zoas
    2 xenias (one pulsing one not)
    several ricordeas

    QUESTION!!!!

    Right so im reaching the limit of the tank here quickly (if i have not passed it yet) I was wondering if you lovely folks think i have enough space for a yellow tang and possibly one linckia starfish.

    this would be the last elements i will add before i can consider my tank complete.


    P.S pics will be up soon

    In my thought you already have surpassed your limit of fish, and you should have at least a 75 gal tank for a tang. :(

    And the linkia needs lots of space and will be competing with your cleanup crew. You will have to target feed the linkia also.
