Holy C'moly this could be the longest thread ever!! If you're lookin' for ideas, let's start with your tank size, colors you like and are you planning on going reef?

 

[rubberduck]

im new and have a 29 gallon and i want to go reef
got a good filter/lights
love bright colors
im thinkin more blue/yellow tang with a watch man gobby and 2 clownfish
any recomended inv

 

[greatfullreefer]

Ok for the clowns but the tank is WAAAAYYYY too small for the Tangs

 

[thedocta]

NO!!! No tang in that size tank. It'll die as soon as it starts growin. You could keep a firefish...those are pretty cool. So are jawfish. A cleaner shrimp or two are always good. -Greg

 

[rubberduck]

thx for the input i realy appericiate it
now has anyone been succesful with there own group of compatible fish?
any good combinations that are good

 

[rubberduck]

is it possible to combine a pistol shrimp and a watchman gobby to form a sembionic relationship?

 

[thedocta]

For your size tank I'd suggest 2 firefish, 2 perculas, 1 jawfish, and maybe a LMB if your filtration is good enough for that many fish. You may also want a cleaner shrimp and some sand sifters. -Greg

 

[rubberduck]

what have u had that is successful?

:cheer:

 

[thedocta]

In my tank...a 38 gallon I have a perc and I'm adding another. I have a firefish and I'm adding another, I have a cleaner shrimp. Im gettin a LMB, sand sifter, and Jawfish eventully tho. -Greg

Almost any fish are compatible unless they are agressive or will eat other fish

One thing you shouldn't get is damsels!!!! I hate those mofos. All they do is attack everything and end up killing each other. -Greg
