Hi,
I am starting a 29 gallon reef. my fish list that I am going to get is
1 Flame Angel
1 Firefish Goby
2 Percula Clowns
Is this all I can get for my tank. and will the clowns get along?
I also want
Midas Blenny
Six line wrasse
and maybe a hawaiian spotted puffer( I would want this the most if i could get one more)
Thanks

if you add the two clowns together, they will get along, one will became female, during this time she will pick on, harass, bother the male, the female will become the bigger of the new. and may appear to 'nag' or pick on the male to keep him in line (to keep him a male).
check on the goby, blenny, wrasse, I don't remember what gets along..
and total, that's too many fish for your tank.

I would say your first four fish,
Flame Angel
1 Firefish Goby
2 Percula Clowns
are all you could keep in a 29. Mostly because of the Flame Angel. You might be able to get another smaller fish, But not the puffer.
Hope this helps.

sorry, ive hunted around to see if i could get someone to tell me what I want to hear, but........instead of starting a 29, start a 55. Some would call a 29 a nano tank!

too much for what? bigger will be easier to take care of and more forgiving...not much of a cost increase if you get the tank for free.
