Need fish suggestion.

I have an established 20g FO tank w/ LS. I know 20 gallons is small so my options with livestock are limited so I need some suggestions with what to put in it. I have a 2 inch tomato clown in there right now but thats it. I want to put one more fish in but don't know what it should be. So if you want, please give me your suggestions on what fish to add. Thanks.

I would say a Regal blue tang. I have this two in my tank and they are allways side by side and have never see them fight.

You could add a six line, royal gammas, or maybe a pigmy angle, there are alot of fish that stay small that look good. Just do some research on the fish you want to buy first. You might want to watch the clown when you add a fish I had one along time ago and he was very agressive . Good Luck

Yeah I should also meantion that the clown is fairly aggressive. He knows the aquarium is his domain. I was thinking maybe a bicolor angel...good, not good?

bicolor angels can also be aggresive. I'm afraid you might have a war on your hand. Also they are among the larger pygmy angels. (I do like them though).

Here's my suggestion--take it however you want. I personally would not put anything aggressive in that tank...period. It is too small and even a small trigger or a small other kind of aggressive fish is not going to do well there.
You said you already had a tomato clown? How about a tang or another kind of clown such as a percula or cinnamon?

I never said I wanted anything aggressive in it. I said the clown was fairly aggressive. I'm thinking probably a pygmy cherub angel. Anybody know anything about them?
No, another clownfish would not get along with this one at all.

never, ever, ever put a tang in that size tank. that is just cruel. grammas are borderline, but i would say no on them. cherub pygmy's are great. another cool fish would be a couple neon gobies. they are real cool and reproduce in captivity alot if you want to try that. a six-line might work. bo
