Hi,
I am in the process off stocking a low energy fish that's buld around my mandarin dragonette.
I is a 55g tank which is connected to a 75g high energy sps tank, a 17g refugium and a 13g sump.
The tank will have lps and zoas and maybe some high end ricordeas.
I current fish in the 55g are:
1x mandarin
2x firefish
1x firehawk
1x yellow watchman goby
1x pistol schrimp
1x fighting conch
10x hermid
And a bunch of snails.
I don't want any of these fish I already have in the 75g tank.
1x yellow tang
1x bristeltooth tang
5x wrasse (1x flasher, 2x fairy, 1 halichoeres, 1x coris)
3x chromis
2x ocellaris
1x purple dottyback
1x slalarias
I'd like to add some calm free swimming fish to the 55g who aren't shy or harmful to the corals but I can't really think of one.
Chromis, anthias and wrasse are not compatible with the tank I want to make as they are way too active and out compete the other fish on food.
A dwarf angle is a bit too risky to me in a tank with lots of lps..
I don't like pyama cardinals and although I think banggai cardinals are pretty they tend to be very shy just like the fire fish I already have.
They spend there time basically on the same spot all day preferably in a low light area which seems boring to me.
They also have a short live spawn and are not super cheap around here (38 euro).
So I can't really think of a good alternative..
Does any one has any idea?
