So, this weekend I set up my first saltwater tank, a 16 gallon Biocube. I can definitely say, it was an adventure! While the tank is cycling, I have been researching fish compatible with small tanks, and compatible with other fish/invertebrates without overloading the tank can you say information overload?!
So, I'm looking for input, advice, and information please
When I look at the tank, I can definitely see a cleaner shrimp and a peppermint shrimp or pom-pom crab in the tank as well as some snails, nassarius or cerith. I can also definitely see 2 or 3 small fish, and that's about it (other than some soft and LPS coral)... The fish is where I am conflicted on lol I know I can put in two clowns, or a couple of firefish but I kind of want something different. I saw a yellow banded possum wrasse while buying live rock and fell in love! but what can I put with it? I also read that it could prey on the other invertebrates in the tank. So, I came to you guys for help.
I know I am limited on space, but I would really appreciate your help and knowledge!!
