So if you’ve seen my posts before I apologize as I’m extremely indecisive when choosing things.

I have a fluval evo 13.5. If you want to see it check my build thread. Still cycling rn. Will be a mixed reef tank in the future.

Basically looking for fish ideas and want to hear what people thing about my current plan.
- 2 clownfish
- Pygmy waspfish/red prawn goby
- cleaner shrimp

If you can suggest any other cool fish options or if you have experience with these fish in a smaller tank it would be helpful.

I’d love to fit four fish but I don’t think it’s possible. Instead if you have any cool invert suggestions I’d love those too.

Thank you in advance.
 
Personally I would keep the 2 clowns and the shrimp, it will be lovely with just the 2 clowns IMO.

Waspfish is recommended for 30 gallon, 2 clowns recommended size is 20 gallon, but your tank is only 10-11 gallons when you consider the rock and sand displacement.
 
I’m just basing this off of what I’ve heard from my lfs and from here. I think the consensus has been that 2 clowns plus one other fish is fine. 4 fish is pushing it in this small of a tank, especially with 2 clowns. With the Pygmy waspfish, there was a highly successful person that kept scorpion fish as a whole from here. He kept 3 in a 15 if I remember correctly, and several other people from here have done similar situations.
Anyways not trying to be annoying or a ******. Sorry if it came across that way. Just really excited for eventually getting these fish.
