pearly, by far... bluespotted are super overated. I think they are ugly. But so are the dusky, and i was thinkin bout one of them. But probably Pearly, they have the coolest colors and personality to me. LFS near me has a pair. . . . in a 17 inch sandbed. haha, its ridiculous. I just got a new clown though, brightest best colored clown I've ever seen.

I was a tad agitated to say the least, the anenomie will find another place to reside. Hes lucky its not going to be my toilet!!

What kind of anemone was it?

alright, i mentioned this in a few threads, my tank is quite different now, for some reason my pipe died, i saw it do it... it looked like it got electricuted, the next day the tiny tiny tiny tiny super tiny scooter dragonet died. (original is still there) then, my juvenile clown dies. (dont buy juvenile fish.. they die easier :( ) alright, here we go....
1 clown
1 scooter
1 pygmy angel
1 yellow watchman
more to come though, jawfish is option. and another clown, but that'll prob be it. unless i get alot more rock... oh, and i completely reaquascaped after the sorta mini tank crash that happened for no reason. all corals are still well.

Hey pete159, can you post a full picture of your tank? You are the first I've seen to have a live rock just like mine. I'm curious to see what you've done with yours? Thanks!

Yeah, mine is Tonga, too. I really like the look of it. I've got that same pretty mint green coraline, also. And I'm getting a lot of purple starting to fill in as well. I have two from Tonga and one from Fiji, so far. My tank will just be 1 month old tomorrow. Just have 3 different types of hermits, 1 emerald crab and 1 peppermint shrimp. I just ordered my first coral, a Kenya Tree, and I have some snails coming, too. Here's a pic of mine taken last week. As you can see, I have a long way to go, but I've decided to take it slow.

1 YWG
1 green clown goby
2 ocellaris
1 Dottyback... its yellow with purple on the top..
the ygm stays in his cave hidden everyday, the clown goby is so small i can barely see see him, but he likes to hang out in some branches of dead coral that i have in there. The dottyback likes to hang out in his little corner and swim around when its time for food. I see the green clown goby more than i've seen the yellow watchman :(. I think my next and last fish might be another clown goby, but a yellow one.

I have a jawfish in a 2 in sandbed. They don't really live in sand anyway. They build a fortress of rubble rock and shells to hide in, at least mine did. He is doing great.

even with my aggressive gs maroon, i have a sixline wrasse and a yellow clown goby. they get a long perfectly fine eventhough my clown is double the size of the sixline and probably five times the size of the goby.
