So excited, my Innovative Marine 15g AIO arrived. I have carib sea live sand and rock with an AI Prime 16. Will be largely zoas, mushrooms, GSP, clove polyps a hammer and maybe a select LPS or SPS (monti cap?) in time.

Need help with fish! I will start with a clownfish but looking for some entertainment beyond a perching goby. Blennys? Dottybacks? Small wrasse?

I do like firefish and cardinals so they may get me upward to the fish mark.

Im more familiar with freshwater fish so need some experienced salt keepers opinions. tY!!

I wouldn’t push more than 3 fish. I’d do a pair of clowns and a dottyback one of my favorites. Be careful and do your research as some fish are hard to keep or will get too big for a 15 gallon. Some other good/colorful options include damsels, neon/engineer gobies, mandarins, etc.

Tyvm! I’ve read to be wary of damsels as they sound feisty. The electric blue one does catch eye tho and hear they put on a nice swimming display in the right setting. :)
