Icon5 blue damsell or bicolor psydochromis??(with a clown fish)

Hi
I am ready to start to put fish in my 15 gallon aquarium
I want to intorduce a clown fish (oscillaris or percula) and another fish, but my question is
which is better to introduce along with the clown fish ( a yellow tailed blue damsell or a bicolor psydochromis or royal gramma) ??
I'm worried about the second fish being agressive to the clown fish in a 15 gallon aquarium?
thanks in advance

Welcome to ReefBuilders steedcafe, glad to have you join us here!

I would go with the Royal Gramma, they are not as aggressive and territorial as the Yellow Tail Damsel or Bicolor Pseudochromis. Your Clown will hold up just fine against any of the three though, they are pretty tough for little fish.

Welcome to RB!

As previously stated, the clownfish will be just fine with any of the fish. Out of the three, I'd pick the royal gramma as well.

I would pick the RG out of the 3 listed as well. If this is a new tank though, you may want to consider adding one at a time. Another cool fish to take a look at is the Tail spot blenny. Very interesting fish to have in a nano tank.
