U must be joking^^^stick a shark in as

The 3 tangs will get too big
The angels will probably fight
Mose wrasses will be a good choice
Liveaquaria are great foe stocking ideas

 

[Gadsby15]

Terrible spelling sorry, fat fingers

 

[darylb94]

I have inverts don't wrasses eat them ? I'd love a tang but sadly I can't they are beautiful fish tho

 

[Gadsby15]

Some will some wont mate, go to reef safe wrasses on live aquaria

 

[darylb94]

Okay I will might go to my LFS tomorrow and ask they won't sell fish if there gonna be in a tank to small

You can certainly do smaller Fairy Wrasses (those 3.5" or less when full grown), any Flasher or Possum Wrasses, or Pseudocheilinops ataenia. None will bother any inverts and none need a sandbed to sleep in.

^ but the tank MUST be completely covered with 1/4" mesh or the like if you desire to keep ANY wrasse.

Any ideas on a colourful bottom dweller?

 

[darylb94]

Still haven't found any fish I like I might get another clown because I only have one. I want to still get some nice colours in the tank

Yellow watchman goby, or a blue spot jaw fish (depending on how deep ur sand is tho)
