Which ones work?

[aquariumgirl16]

I have 2 firefish, 2 skunk shrimp, and a royal gramma. I really want to get a blue fish and a yellow fish to go with them. I was thinking these
BLUE
Blue gudgeon dartfish
Blue dot jawfish
Blow reef chromis
Neon blue goby
YELLOW
Yellowhead jawfish
Black bar chromis
Yellow prawn goby
Which ones would be the best to go with the fish I have and not eat the shrimp? My clownfish and dotty back in the other tank ate my peppermint shrimp, and I want a fish that won't eat them. Help please.

 

[aquariumgirl16]

Yes, but no. Please reply.

What's the temperment of your RG? Some are real bullies and some are very timid.

It died. Other fish are ok though. I would get another one when I get more fish. Just want something pretty and peaceful.

I would vote for a blue chromis. Very pretty, active and peaceful.

I agree with the chromis. They are peaceful and beautiful.

Ok. What about yellow?

How big is your tank?

 

[aquariumgirl16]

30 gallons. I've had five fish in it before. Even more, but I don't want more than five. Just wanna know which ones go well together?

I would recommend the yellow prawn goby. You could use a first in the lower part of your tank.

Of the three choices for yellow, I agree, the yellow prawn goby is an interesting and entertaining fish. Be sure the tank is covered - they love carpet surfing. You might want to consider getting a pistol shrimp at the same time - they often pair with the yellow prawn goby, and the interaction makes for a great display and something to show off.

Won't a pistol shrimp eat my cleaner shrimp? I think they would. I'd rather have a skunk cleaner shrimp. Or a fire shrimp.
