My 37 is still under construction...a very, very slow build, lol! I will soon start building the oystercrete walls, but, even when done, I'll be looking at another 2 months cure time, so, there is no rush on getting my fish! I have been browsing the fish sites and reading up on those I'm interested in and have compiled a wishlist that I'm finding very hard to whittle down to reality-size! So, first off,
*What is a good stocking level for a 37g 12x30x20(?) reef tank with 20l sump and possibly in future additional 6gal refugium? Rockscaping will be moderately open with room to swim with rock walls with a cave on the back glass and a low island in middle. (or that is the plan, lol!)
I'm planning on very peaceful species suitable for 30g or smaller tanks.
*Current wishlist A
3 orange-lined cardinals, pink-barred goby, tailspot blenny, flasher wrasse
*wishlist b
5 redspot cardinals, swissguard basslet and/or yellow assessor, blackcap jawfish
* wishlist c
pair skunk clowns with anemone, 1 or 2 basslets (assessor, swissguard, gramma) yellow sailfin blenny or starry blenny
* wishlist d
pair skunk clowns, friedmani or sunrise dottyback, midas blenny, starkii damsel
Other fish I really like; rainfordi goby, vanderbilt chromis, pj cardinals, striped blenny, midas blenny friedmani or flavivetex psuedochromis.
Any advise/tips/pros/cons of these stocklists and the species would be very much appreciated. I have kept a few of these fish in the past, but, most are fish that would be new to me.
