I can't say yes I could use more as I'm fairly happy with the ones I've got and I'm pretty full stock wise, but maybe......one more

I lost a sand sifting goby a while back and want to replace him. He ended up in my sump once before (still don't know how he squeezed through the overflow, or why), and I put him back. I don't have a filter sock for this tank. My fear is that he might have been chopped up by my return pump (no screen on the inlet). He did a great job of keeping my sand clean and fresh looking. I want to get another one.

But hate to do a 3 month QT routine just for 1 fish. All this talk about red bugs and AEFW makes me think of maybe getting some kind of wrasse, or several. My main DT is lightly stocked now as I sent half the fish (all the big ones) downstairs to my new tank last summer.

Solutions are easy. The real difficulty lies in discovering the problem.

I vote yes but realistically until I get some kind of QT system in place it's a no. Also I always fear the hazing for newcomers and usually when I stop to think about that I tend to stop myself.

My fish load is pretty skimpy in both my reefs. I'm waiting for a special fish for my 90-gallon though, might be awhile. Haven't decided what else to stock.

I added a 6-pack of Blue Eye Cardinals to my 50-gallon a couple months ago, and a one-eyed Tailspot Blenny last week so it actually has a few fish now.
