ok so i was just wondering if a maroon clownfish would be a decent candidate for my 24g nanocube... i hear that they're pretty aggressive, and i was thinking of keeping a goby also.
my livestock list would be as follows:
- corals
- 5 hermits, 4 snails
- 1 cleaner shrimp or blood red shrimp
- 1 maroon clownfish
- 1 mid-sized goby
too much? too little?
will the maroon be too aggressive for the goby?
thanks for any help!

Sounds good to me. I have a white stripe maroon clown, coral beauty angel and a yellowtail blue damsel in my 25 and all is just fine.
They are very beautiful fish but from what I have read can have an "attitude".

thanks for the help.... i've ordered just a maroon clownfish for now... i will see how he does, i guess introducing a new fish later on would be a bad idea... but we'll see... i'm not too sure about the other fish anyways... i just knew i wanted a maroon clown
i'll post some pictures when everything gets here...

I have a maroon and gold stripe in my 20 currently with a purple back pseudochromis. He used to live with a bicolor blenny and a six line wrasse. I have no problems with him being agressive. If anyone is agressive it's that purple back. He can be mean. He made lunch out of a couple of shrimp that I introduced.
