I still have about 3 weeks to go until my tank gets fully cycled but I wanted to start planning on what livestock I will be able to keep in my tank.
The tank is a 36gal bow front with a drip filter, and a 10 gal fuge. I currently have close to 30 lbs of rock in there, with a 50-50 mix between cured LR and base rock, and approximately 20 lbs of aragonite sand.
The tank is currently going to be a FOWLR setup, but I do plan on adding corals to it, once I have had enough experience with the SW setup.
I know that I would like to have a pair of Oscellaris Clown fish, since they will be comparatively easier for a beginner to SW like myself and from what I've read, they seem to have a great personality.
So, my question is - what other fish/invertebrates can I have? How many fish would you suggest I have as a maximum? I would personally prefer fish that have a nice mix of colors, and a good personality, as in they like to come out and swim and maybe eventually eat out of my hands, as opposed to those you rarely see since they're always in hiding. Also, what shrimp/snail/crab combination should I have and how many?
I would appreciate any ideas/feedback/suggestions so I can start planning things out
Regards,
Yash
