Hi everybody! First poooooooost
I am keeping my first saltwater aquarium after an extended period of time working with freshwater fish. My tank is a 40 gallon breeder. In terms of stocking, I have tried to be conservative about it:
1 Six Line Wrasse
1 SA Fancy Mocha Clown
1 Firefish Goby
1 Arc Eye Hawkfish
5 red leg hermits
5 blue leg hermits
5 snails (like turbos but smaller, I cannot remember the exact name to save my life)
So it's a pretty solid stock so far. I know the hawkfish can be extremely territorial but he's young, just about two inches long and calm even around the firefish which is basically the scaredy cat of the tank. I was just wondering if this was there was anything else active I could add or if this was about it? Also, do you see any long-term issues with my stocking, aside from increasing the size of the clean up crew?
