Favorite Nano Fish?

[JenB]

We are currently cycling a 25 lagoon We will have corals (mostly lps). What are some fish options that are favorites? We’ve had many reef tanks but they were all large.

Btw - we have a 270 FOWLR as well

Here’s a video from tonight. Almost all fish are from NyAquatics. They were all almost Juvi sized when I got them (1-3in depending on fish). All are fat and happy.

Blue line has pop eye - for the 2nd time and we’re working on it

I keep chalk bass, they are very underestimated. Beautiful under all light, eats frozen, flakes etc, super peaceful. Only thing is they are very shy and will hide the first couple of days and they will be pretty scared and try to jump when you add new fish. Other than that they will stay in open water in the front.

My favorites are:

Yasha goby
Helfrichi Firefish
Possum or pink streaked wrasse
