New 14 G Biocube

Tonyle30s · 12/28/2014, 10:53 AM

I just got a 14 G Biocube for my daughter. She wants a few clown fish and an anemone....any recommendations? Here are the chems after 2 days of cycling:

Mag - 1640
Alk - 11.8 dkh
Cal - 540

I'm sure it's going to take a bit for the chem reads to level out. I also only have 2 pieces of live rock in there so i'll be picking some more up over the next few days. Lighting is standard but will be picking up the extra LED strip.

Two clown fish would be the absolute limit of fish that you could place in the tank, and most would argue that even two clowns in a 14 gallon tank is one too many. In a 14 gallon tank it is unlikely clown fish will allow any other fish to survive in "their" tank.
