Just wondering if I can get anymore fish in my 75. I have about 80 lbs of LR, seaclone skimmer, and also running Fluval with bio media. The fish I have now are 1 yellow tang, 2 o. clowns, and 5 green chromis, 3 shrimp, and 2 brittle stars. If I can get more fish, what would get along with all these creatures?

If anything I would go small, like under 3" at max size.

How does your SeaClone skimmer run? I'm contemplating one for my 75|90

I would leave it alone. If you did put something in there, it'd have to be one of the more aggressive damsels or other small aggressive fish. Your bio-load is pretty high, but I'd be more worried about the tang harassing any newcomers. I have a SeaClone right now. Seems to work well, but it's the only skimmer I've ever owned, so I guess it's hard to say. I don't like though how there's two different spots that can leak water, or even come apart. Bad times....

Thanks VooDoo.

So would you take a Prizm over a SeaClone?

you don't mention how old the tank is, but if it is pretty well established, a mandarin would be a potential tank mate.

My tanks is about half a year old. I would like to get a mandarin, but I would want to get a refuge first. My Seaclone is okay, it pulls stuff out pretty good. Did have a problem with it leaking on the bottom where the tube goes in. I am thinking about getting a Aqua C Remora. I heard good things about those.

I would go with the remora pro for tank your size.
