Hi everyone,

I'm about to upgrade my 24 nano cube to a 93 cube. Will be a sps dominated mixed reef. The only fish I will be transferring are a pair of clowns and a yellow watchman and his shrimp buddy. What else do you think would be good additions? I like a variety of things so I'd love to hear any suggestions!

I was definitely thinking of wrasses and a Midas blenny already, I hadn't even considered dartfish tho! I've never kept fairy or flasher wrasses, do you have to be careful with what you mix together?

Most fairy and flashers will mix well, though there are a handful of fairy wrasses that should be avoided. These include scott's, whipfin, pylei, roseafascia, lanceolatus.

Awesome, thanks for the info. For the ones they typically mix well do you need a specific male to female ratio for success?

It's better to get one specimen of a few different species. Females usually transition to male in captivity, even with another male present.

Would a flame and a longnose get along? I don't think I've seen a tank with more than one hawk
Yes, I have both in a few tanks.
