Currently have:
1x small acan colony
1x super small black storm clown
1x chill six line wrasse
1x blue spot jawfish
1x peppermint shrimp
1x fire shrimp

Going to buy:
1x blue stripe pipefish
1x yasha goby to go w my pistol shrimp
1x orange storm clown

Coral going to buy:
Goniopora
Zoas
Torch corals
Hammer corals
Button scolys
Rock flower anemones
Leather toadstool
Frogspawn coral

Does this sound good to everyone?
Thanks!

I would be careful about getting another clown. You will run the risk of the clowns fighting and the black storm being territorial towards the new clown. They could end up being fine together, but there's always the risk of them fighting.
 
The wrasse and the pipefish do better in tanks larger than 25g, usually at least 30g for those guys, so I would probably skip the pipefish if it were me. The clown may be okay, but I'd keep an eye on the already-established clown in the tank. The coral list looks good. :)

Is there a specific vendor you hope to buy from?

HOW MUCH DOES A FISH’S FEEDING REQUIREMENTS AFFECT YOUR STOCKING DECISIONS?

  • A lot! - I avoid fish that require frequent or specialized feeding

    Votes: 16 32.7%
  • Quite a bit, but an automatic feeder can change my answer

    Votes: 6 12.2%
  • It depends on whether my nutrient export can handle it

    Votes: 7 14.3%
  • It depends on how badly I want the fish

    Votes: 11 22.4%
  • Not much. I’m willing to adjust my routine

    Votes: 9 18.4%
  • Not at all. Feeding demands don’t limit my stocking choices

    Votes: 8 16.3%
  • I usually learn about the demanding feeding schedule after buying the fish!

    Votes: 2 4.1%
  • I haven’t really considered this before

    Votes: 4 8.2%
  • Something else (see my comments in the thread)
