I have a 33gallon brackish cycled aquarium with an SG of 1.005. I have put a great amount of thought into what I want in the tank. I just want to make sure the stocking levels are okay for the fish I am going to have and the amount per species is good). Right now I have 4 mollies with 12 babies (going to only have 2 or 3 remaining in tank). The other fish I want in the tank is bumble bee gobies and Indian glass fish. I am hopefully getting the bumble bee gobies this weekend and was planning on getting 3. Is this a good number to prevent aggression. How many glassfish could i have (unpainted, of course) (i've heard they are more comfortable in groups). I was planning on 3 or so. Also, if anybody knows helpful hints about keeping them I really like to hear about it. There not much info on them.
Thanks in advance for any advice.

If I gave the mollies away, could I have 6 glassfish in this tank , along with the 3 bumble bee gobies or would that be too many. I think they are really cool fish and would like to try and have them.
What other fish would you recommend for small brackish community fish (if there are any)
 
I'm assuming your tank is a 33 long; 4 feet in length? I have 5 bumblebee gobies in my 33 long and they all get along just fine. Of course, I have plenty of tiny hidey holes for them too, though. That may very well be the reason they are nice to each other. I also have 3 "neon" gobies and 2 Knight gobies. You may want to try one of those. Oh, and a flounder would be a wonderful bottom feeder for a brackish tank.
