oh, he's talking about fish, when i read the title i thought....hmmm sounds interesting
I would personally stick with 1 Mandarin as they are very difficult feeders.
What about a dwarf angel? Coral Beauty or a Flame Angel - depends what corals you plan on keeping.
Why not add a goby to that list? I would like a Yellow Watchman Goby but have not seen one in LFS.
Fire Fish are also beautiful
If you don't mind aggression you could consider a puffer but that would limit you CUC options.
I like a challenge with the manderins and have previous experience with them plus a great LFS to help me out with QT to get them feeding. Plus im after a mated pair too.
I was thinking a coral beauty but i read they can be a bit coral nippy?
Yellow watchman gobby is a good shout but i couldnt get a difinitive answer as to if they get on with blennies.
I love inverts so puffers etc would be out of the question.
bangii cardinal
Not a big fan of the cardinals...find them a bit borring
Coral Beauty supposedly nippy I saw a juvenile at LFS and it was fascinated with the feather dusters so prob not a good shout!
I just think they are amazing and can't decide detween that or a flame!
If you like the Yellow Watchman Goby and want inverts they are meant to be great with Pistol Shrimp.
Not sure what they are like with blennies, but would like to know as I would not mind a sailfin either
A nice shoaling fish would be good in a tank that size I'm sure someone can think of something?!
Someone was talking about jawfish the other day and they look quite nice especially the blue spot.
Again not sure what they are like with other bottom dwellers?
