What fish to get next???...

[fedukeford]

i REALLY want another fish, i dont know what kind, i want a small fish that will swim around, so far i have:
55 gallon reef:
Orchid Dottyback
2 false perc clowns
Coral Beauty Angle
Yellow Watchmen goby
Scooter blenny
the tank is almost 7 months old, it has shrimp so any hawkfish are out, and no jumpers because i dont have a closed top
so if this was your tank what woudl you put in as a last fish?

what about a firefish...maybe a couple schooling chromis...they swim ALL around and tend to make other fish feel more comfortable. jst a thought.

I would go with a tang as they are very good algae eaters

 

[matt819]

might not wanna say that around these parts, a tang in a 55 is like treadin on thin ice...55 is hardly acceptable for a tang, as they would outgrow it very fast.

no way will i ever put a tang in anything smaller than a 90 gallon, i cant get a fire fish because they are jumpers, thanks for the chromis suggestion, i think i might get 3 blue reef chromis is that isnt over the Max bioload for my tank

how about a pair of neon gobies? I love my neon gobies.

I have a firefish without tops or eggcrate and have had no problems, althoug he'd prolly just bounce off the lights.

 

[matt819]

3 fish all at once would be pushin it

My vote is for a nice fairy wrasse or perhaps a sixline wrasse. Move all the time and get along well with others.
Good Luck!
