[socalracer]

just starting adding livestock to my tank and was wondering everyone's favorite fish under 20 bucks

 

[drewsta]

Depends on what your looking for.. Reef safe or Aggressive? How big is your tank? Where do you live prices vary from state to state...

 

[socalracer]

He wanted a non-aggressive tank, SFE and Humu Humu Trigger would not work. Fish under $20 would depend where your at. Green Chromis, Clowns, Some Goby, Some Blenny, Royal Gramma, etc. These are generally some of the least inexpensive fish around. :happyfish

I like the good ole' firefish and pretty much any clown fish
especially gold and maroon stripe clowns

Wow its late lol yea chromis/goby/blenny/yellow tang for non aggressive. On that note I say goodnight. LOL

if you're lucky you can find a midas blenny for 15, but they usually run around 25 here in SoCal.

try a biocolor blenny or purpleback psuedchromis wihich if u check this website are cheap & guaranteed :happyfish both 4 $12.99 each :cheer: (p.s just dont keep the biocolor blenny with other blennies)

 

[socalracer]

I like the bicolor bleeny, hows it's personality?

 

[zanoshanox]

do bicolor blennys eat long hair algea? i knwo lawnmowers its like all they eat...I was thinkin of getting one (both under 20 bucks)
I would say ocellaris clowns, firefish, yellow wathmen, yellow tangs, all awesome, colorful fish for under 20 bucks!

 

[seaspy]

I agree, Clowns, Firefish, Lawnmower Blenny, Royal Gramma are all good fish. Lawnmower is cool to watch, but mine hasn't touched the long hair algae yet. I'm starting to think my luck is still running sour, lol.

I would avoid a purpleback psuedchromis unless it is going to be the last fish in the tank. I had one and it bullied my other fish. I wouls go with a sixline wrasse.

 

[seannmelly]

The fish we own under $20 in our 125 reef:
3 green chromis $2ea
6 Line wrasse $15
Lawnmower blenny $10
Diamond goby $10
Yellow watchman goby $8
3 2-3"Yellow tangs $14.99ea
and the gold stripe maroon was close at $22

Mine had a great personality. He would always come to the glass to see me. He made cute lip marks on my glass when he would try to eat off it.
Someone suggested a Midas Blenny. Very cool fish, hard to find. If you get one try to find a large barnacle for it to swim through. They love that.
I recently got a purpleback psudochromis. He's really cool with a good personality.
I love my maroon and gold stripe clown. Probably slightly over $20 is most areas though.
Had a six line wrasse for a long time. Fun fish to watch swim around.
