Here is the tank

Marineland 45 Cube with Custom Corner Overflow
20 Gallon Sump with
Bubblemagus cone skimmer and chaeto

Currently in the tank is a a Pair of Captive Bred Latz Clowns a Sebea anemone and yellow watchman.

I need one more fish or i wanted to go with a small schooling fish.

Any suggestions?
 
How long have the clowns been in the tank or I guess really how territorial are they? I have the same tank and am getting ready to start stocking and am planning a pair of clowns, but they will be the last fish I add. ;)

I might try something that can hold it's own like a 6 line wrasse. Will add alot of movement too. Don't know of any fish that will school in an aquarium of that size.
 
Cardinals will and there are some that stay very very small like 1 inch or 1.5.

My latz have been in there for a couple months, but im not worried about territory cause my clowns have their sebea and they dont leave it.
 
I'd go for a school of bangaiis or chromis to give some more movement in the tank.
 
Bangaii get too big, i need some small cardinals, i am def not paying 20 a fish, so i gotta find a deal for some small cardinals.
