My current stock of fish in my BC29 are: purple pseudochrmis, green clown goby, yellow clown goby, bi-color blenny, and a saddleback clown. I would like to add another saddleback so it can partner up with my current clown. I would think the bio-load is small since the gobies are so tiny. So can I add another saddleback?

How long has this tank been going with said fish?

If you are able to keep up with the bioload, and you aren't having any excess nutrients after 5 months, then you would probably be ok. Kinda pushing it though.

Just plan on spending more time with tank maintenance.

May I ask what "BC" means?

Bio Cube thank you

Looks like a great set-up.I'd venture to say 2 clowns introduced at different times in a 29 is gonna be risky.I've heard of success with Larger tanks,but simultaneous introduction is the rule of thumb.
Not much territory in a 29 for 2 clowns to come to terms.What usually happens is first in doesn't like second in.:no:
Riding the fence on simultaneous introduction is a recipe for disaster.Take it from someone who has bent all the rules.:blush:
