    Default Bioload NC 12

    As the title states, I'm wanting feedback on bioload in a 12g nano. I currently have some zoa's, sun coral, firefish, tail spot blenny and various CUC members. I have about 20lbs of LR and 18LBS of LS. My ammonia, nitrites and nitrates have been at zero for about two months. However! I've only had the zoa's in there for about a month, the sun coral for about three days and both fish for about two weeks. So far, everything seems great though it hasn't been that much time. I know, I know, only bad things happen fast. Even so, I would very much like a small goby/pistol combo. You think it would be too much bioload or would I be able to get away with it? I know the 1" per gallon thing is BS for the most part but I currently have a max of 5.5" of fish (max size is 2.5" on the blenny and 3" on the FF).

    I think you'd be fine, as long as you keep up with your maintenance. Its definitely approaching a peak of bioload in there -- but its not like I'm one to talk with my trimma/eviotas, blenny and firefish

    All should be fine -- blennies tend to be rock dwelling, and firefish just kind of flit in the water ignoring all else... My guess is they won't even acknowledge eachother's existence

    Awesome. I think so too. If things start looking bad, I can always transport one to my other tank.
