| have you ever thought of the clown gobie, or other gobies for that matter. there on the small side and do well in the reef tank. i have one clown goby and 3 dartfish. there very popular so you should be able to find them at one of your LFS'. also the cardinals would be a good choice and so would a six line wrasse!

| You seem to have alot of fish that are out in the open, you could diversify by getting some sand sifting type fish like a watchman goby or even scooter blenny, little guys that scoot around, they should get along with everything and have a lot of personality...even a spotted hawkfish could do good. They shoot around the tank and perch on rocks.

| ...Just thought of another intersesting little guy that you could look into, a barnacle blenny-they are tiny little guys that set up shop in a crevice of your live rock and jet out for food at feeding time. And midas blennies are one of my favorites.

| Thanks for the suggestions! Here is what I ordered for round one. A pair of Mandrian Dragonet, pink and blue shrimpgoby, a pistol shrimp and 5 peppermint shrimp. I hope they do well. Any suggestions for a couple of larger fish for round 2? |

| Depending on the territorial nature that your clowns, and yellow tang may have you could try a tang of a different body shape and color. Such as a unicorn or naso tang, try for one that is of similar size to the yellow tang you already have.

| how long has your tank been setup? with those mandarians you need a very well established aquarium. about 1 years of age. you said you have a pair?? that makes it even more detramental to have an aged aquarium. they feed on copepods and eat hundreds a day. setting up a refugium will help with the population.
