How many?????

[blazesnake]

Hi

Im starting my first tank, the size is:
Volume: approx: 120 litres
Size: 101 x 46 x 31 cm

I was wondering how many fish could a tank this size hold and what would be the best fish for a beginner?

Thx in advance Sam

i would say couple of percs, blenny or goby, firefish or dartfish about 6 in total o would say but hey im only a beginner aswell not sure if ur get away with tang but im sure someone would answetr that question

Thx anyway, ill try and look into it further

not big enough for a tang... they need long tanks to be happy.

I would say 5 fish personally

and stick to clownfish, gobys, maybe a blenny, royal gramma, dottyback, jawfish or firefish.

Hope that helps

Royal gramma

nice fish but can be moody B'z :p a bit territorial.

What ever you do never introduce damsels as your first fish! Major mistake in a tank that size.

I would go for some tank bred ocellaris (common clowns) Banggai Cardinalfish, Dwarf Angelfish (although stay clear of multifasciatus), Firefish.

Lots of nice stuff :)

Stay away from the tangs ATM until you catch the bug and find you need to upgrade :p
