29 gallon stocking list

[ryanhayes9]

i want to have some exotic fish or colorful fish that will live in a 29 gallon. I have already decided on a pair of clowns but can you guys name some exotic or colorful ones? :help:

Neon Dottieback is pretty colorful, I have one in my 30gl. Fun to watch. I have had him for a year or 2. Hmmmmmmmmmmm...... maybe some clown gobies. Those fish are cool as hell.

JMO, hope this helps some. Those aren't really exotic fish I named LOL.

Mandarins require larger tanks.

But I am definitly one of the people that say, you never know until you try.

They need a lot of LR.

My neon isn't aggressive at all. My clowns are more aggressive then my neon dottieback.

But that don't mean they are all not agressive.

I really like the painted fairy wrasse.....it has awesome color, but I think it is not invert safe. Then again I am not an expert, so I might be wrong.....

Fairy Wrasses are indeed invert safe. They are extraordinarily peaceful-except to conspecifics. However, they also require quite a bit of swimming room as they are very active. Fish that are not tremendously active swimmers do better in smaller tanks.
Perching fish like hawks or small gobies, Psuedochromis, grammas-fish that mainly 'hang out' A firefish Gobie hangs in the air and is very attractive as is the purple psuedochromis or royal gramma. A pair (male and female) of PJ cardinals would work as well and their coloration is pretty 'exotic'. OR-a jawfish or gobie would work if you have a sand substrate. You could do a specimin tank with just your clowns, an anemone and add some shrimp, a serpent star, etc. and have a wonderful tank.
