Stocking For 6gallon Jbj Nano

[AnInnocentBystander]

In a 6 gallon nano with 7 lbs LR and 8 lbs of LS, do u guys think i could keep 1 false perc and a black clown goby along with about 6 cleanup crew members?

NO! Too many fish. That is the problem with going nano..the smaller the tank...the greater the challenge.....the less you can put it in it. I would NOT recommend putting more than one fish in a nano less than 10G's. The closer you approach a pico reef, you should probably only keep inverts. Besides, recommended tank volume for a perc is 30G's....JMO.

I would lower the sand to 6lbs.

Well the recommend tank size for the perc would still be 30G...

Just one small goby would do it...

A-I-B,

Listen to Steelhealr here.... Scratch the Perc and go with the Goby. You could put 2 neon gobies in the tank successfully or maybe 2 clown gobies if started off small together you should be ok... I know I had 1 yellow and 1 green and they did not get along together PERIOD! Yellow boy is the one that decided to stay with me...

HTH,
