The shrimp gobies stonogobiops nematodes and yasha. Always gotta have a shrimp+goby pair.

Also loving my twinspot - he does just the right amount of sand- sifting for my tastes.
Excellent choices! I need photos of your tank!

Ah yes they have some of these at the store! I don’t have any corals in there at the moment…would he still be happy?
I never kept them in a tank without corals, but expect they’d be fine. They tend to bounce around the rock work and perch.

my tank is mostly an experiment - populated by the things tough enough to survive experiments and neglect, but here's a couple of iterations of it.

Softy dominated. Those two toadstool leathers got so big they took more than half the light of the tank. So I removed the right one, and am letting the sinularia behind it dominate that side.

A different iteration from a couple of years ago. The tank is by the window, and I love morning sunlight coming through. I'll grudgingly accept the GHA issues that comes with it.

Here's a shrimp/goby pair



sunlight on softy polyps is an underrated look, IMO.
