So my fluval 13.5 has 4 fish.
1x clownfish
1x Royal Gramma
1x Cleaner Goby
1xCitron Goby

I am not adding any more fish. Will rehome if needed no signs of aggression from any fish.

I might rehome the gramma for a fire fish if I see aggression

It wasn’t so much as aggression, the RG just seemed to go mad one day, it would swim into the clowns corner, not move, the clowns would try and flick it away, they would gave up after a while, the gramma stopped eating, not a nice experience to watch it all happen.

So yes, keep a close eye, if you see a change in behaviour you need to take action as soon as you think it’s necessary.

My clownfish is pretty aggressive towards my hand it jumped out and snapped me. So I'm pretty sure if he feels threatened, he will not go easy.
