When can I add another fish?

Whats the tank size, water params, how long has it been running, how long have those fish been in the tank? If the tank is cycled and stable and the clowns have been in there and healthy for a few weeks, you can probably add another fish.
Has it completely cycled? What are you ammonia/nitrite/nitrate readings? Don't have a whole lot of room in that tank for much more fish. What are you looking at adding?
If anything I'd maybe look at a smaller goby. Personally thought I'd probably leave the fish at the 2 and concentrate on inverts like shrimp.
3 would be overstocked IMHO.
i have 1 fish in an 18 gal, and wouldnt suggest more a'tall
and whoa, 8 weeks? thats how long i waited before i added a CUC
Your movin way too fast.

i also agree that you are maxed out with fish (sorry). a flame angel needs at least 30g as well... maybe you could get a cleaner shrimp next along with some snails and other cleaners.
Thanks guys and gals,
I would have thought it could handle more than that!
Does anyone else think im movin too fast?
The tank was checked by my lfs and they said it was fine after about 2 weeks of running. Thats when I added my shrimps and crabs and snails.
I keep testing the water and everything seems ok.
Any suggestions please?
Thanks.

the most devistating thing you can do in this hobby is take advice from someone who will profit from your mistakes.
do you have your own test kits?
