 Up And Running 5 wks have past tank has cycled. I have add about 50 snails so far. I will be adding hermit crabs and a blenny on Tuesday. My question is; if I add about 6 chromis is this equal to about 1 or 2 regular fish in reference to bio-load?  |

| Re: Up And Running And i think you are supposed to go with either 5 or 7, i have seen a few times that it is better to add odd numbers. |

| Re: Up And Running Yes, it is better to go with odd numbers. I am not sure why, but that is what i have read over and over again. And I think you may be able to add more than 5-7 smaller fish because your tank is so large. I definately would not add any larger fish yet though.

| Re: Up And Running As long as the chromis are small in size you will be ok.
