i am thinking about making my 15 gallon brackish. i currently have 5 mollies in it (2 yucatans, 1 sailfin, 1 dalmation, and 1 silver). What else could i put in it maybe a fan dancer goby and a dwarf puffer? If neccesary i can get rid of a couple of the mollies. i really would like a couple different kinds of small gobies and a couple of the mollies and maybe a dwarf puffer.

15 gallon brackish setup

how about some mono sebae, scats, archer? maybe your tank might be too small for those. how about buying a larger tank?

HAHAHA, Sorry, not to bash or flame, but those things grow at LEAST one foot each. That's not even worth considering for a 15 g tank!

Ok, I suggest getting a Bumblebee Goby or two with your mollies.

Dwarf Puffers are out, since they are strictly freshwater, and Knight Gobies maybe out since they are quite large and voracious/messy eaters as they get older. I actually think your tank is fully stocked as is. Take out a molly or two to make some room.

Some mollies grow to 3-4", so you tank may already be stocked. Probably could add a few BBGs though. Are you using marine salt?

i never planned on getting any of those bigger fish mentioned. I only want a couple gobies. I will use marine salt when i start converting it. my black yucatan mollies are full grown and rather small. the only big one is the sailfin.

take out the sailfin and put 2 BBG gobies. Take out two mollies, fit in 3 BBGs. That's all I would recommend, unless you get rid of all the mollies and have like 7 BBGs

that sounds like a good idea. I also want a figure 8 puffer. so maybe like 3 or 4 mollies, 1 or 2 bb gobies, and a figure 8 puffer. would this work?
