    Hey Everyone- So I know there is calculators out there that say how many inches of fish you can have per gallon but wanted to see what you thought.. I have a 120 that is stocked with the following:

    Naso Tang
    Hippo Tang
    2 Six Lines
    2 Ocellaris Clowns
    Lubbock's Wrasse
    Orange Spot Goby
    Lawnmower blenny
    Neon Goby

    Am I getting close on my limit for the tank or do I still have some self space left. Any recomendations for new fish?

    Are the six lines eating prepared food?? Don't think a 120g can keep up with the food demand for both if they are not eating your food.

    IMHO you are overstocked by one tang. Naso tangs get about 18" if memory serves me correctly

    Six lines are eating pellets and Formula B. Right now I feed every other day. Tangs get lettuce or Broccoli daily.
