Hey guys, I'm probably turning my 29g into a saltwater tank so i was wondering.. with about 30-45lbs of rock or maybe more (depending on the price) how many fish do you guys think i'll be able to keep? I'm thinking about a clown or two but other then that what would you guys think on a number roughly?

 

[evoIX]

rough number for a 29gallon is about 4-5.

depends on size of fish. reef tank? small fish more fish.

Most people say 1" of fish body (not counting tail) per 5g of water. Assume 25g in a 29 with 45# of rock and a sump.

Well I'm not gonna have a sump so I'm thinking 4-5 like evoIX said...

yeah i heard something similar.. I heard that its 1 inch of body not including head or tail for every 3 gallons.. on of my questions was how do you distinguish the head size and where it ends haha.. so i guess it makes more sense with not including just the tail lol.
