Thread: Would it be wise?

    Default Would it be wise?

    Would it be a good idea if i wanted to add two more ocellaris clownfish to my 29g tank that already has 2, a blue hippo, neon goby, and mandarin?

    You already have five fish there, Id say youre just about maxed out for a 29 gallon.

    plus you would need more live rock than a 29 can hold, and at least look good, for the mandarin

    Echo don't do it, and get that hippo out of there... a month is too long, he'll probably get stressed, get ich and spread it in your tank. No bueno

    I figured it wouldnt be a good idea just wanted to see what others thought...i know the hippo will get big..but its been there for almost two months now..and its belly is fat and it seems content, plus the neon does a good job cleaning him up
