Sure, how about some Zoas:

A few Rhodactis:

Really nice pictures!! Love the colors

Glad you liked them. Somewhat challenging to get true-to-life coloration with LEDs.

Brief update: Clowns have been moved on as they just got a little to big for the tank. While I do miss the two goobers, I don't miss the kamakazee attacks on my hand when cleaning

The tank is now a peaceful place of near tranquility with a pair of ORA Yellow Neon Gobies, a Two Spot Bimaculatus Blenny and a pair of Yellow Black Stripe Squat Lobsters:

Tank hasn't changed much from the last pic:

Love the goobies they are fun to watch and in a small tank really shine.

Very true. They are so small that even a 12g is plenty large enough.

Update: Tank is still up-and-running with no major issues. The transition from Clownfish to Gobies/Crustaceans has gone quite well with only one of two Venus Anemone Shrimp disappearing. The remaining one has lost one of it's claws, so I suspect run-ins with the Squat Lobsters.

A few pics:

How big do those squat lobsters get? Will they eat fish?
