Goby or Blenny ?

[dazed1]

Well, i'm ready to finally place my U-build order with SWF.com and was wondering what sort of Goby or Blenny I should order.
This is what my order would consist of :
1 Aquacultured Fighting Conch
3 Feather Duster
MAYBE - 1 - Scarlet Cleaner Shrimp
Sand Sifting Cerith Snail
1 Aquacultured Tomato Clown
2 or 3 Ricordia Mushroom or maybe 2 Ricordia Cluster
1 or 2 Umbrella Mushroom
I was thinking of adding one blenny or goby and skipping out the shrimp and cerith snail's.
Please advice as I plan to place my order soon

Oh also, i do have little hair algae on my rock's as well. If that matter's in a decision of a blenny/goby

Ok, i've placed an order for a scooter blenny instead of the shrimp and fighting conch. If any other suggestion's, let me know. My order would ship on tuesday

Yups read about the algae strip's for him.
And since i feed/will feed my other fish frozen brine soaked in garlic, i'll try having him eat that as well.

Everything your getting seems fine, except one. the tomato clown is the most aggressive clown and once fully grown it is likely to kill any other fish you put in the tank.

I am going to order tomorrow and was wondering what a fighting conch is. Can you tell I don't have any books! Well 1 but it is generic. Is it a large snail ?

I believe a conch is a sort of crab.

Oops, sorry, I don't really have much intrest in conches.

yes I know. But i don't plan to keep a 20L for too long .
I will upgrade in maybe a year, and if he get's big in that much of a while, i will trade it with someone who has a nice home for him.
My gf really likes the color's of the tomato and since its valentine's day next week .
thank's thouh.

Yup's. thank's for the thought thouh. THe only other fish with the clown is going to be a scooter. Both introduced same time, and both will be small. The other that i woould add after a few month's *might* be a wrasse or coral beauty. Just not sure and wont add before researching.
