Hi all I wanted to get some second opinions on some fish I should add to my latest build. I want mostly captive breed species, but I know that I want some of the small clown gobies and yasha and shrimp pair. Im thinking of getting some of the nicer clownfish and have them host an anemone at some point as well. Any other ideas? or should I stop there? Tank dimensions: 26x9x18 (length x height x depth)

Firefish, assessors, gramma would work too.
 
Nice tank. What are the specs? I think you could pull off an anemone and some clowns.

Thanks! Its far from finished and once it is I will be making a build thread as soon as its finished. What specs in particular? I definitely want to host some clowns with an anemone. What about blennies? Im a fan of those guys for sure but want them to mind their business.

Most of the commonly available blennies should be good in that tank.

Blennies would go fine. I don't a think Blenny would bully your Clowns, especially if the Clowns are protected in an anemone. As for the specs, I was just curious about how large the tank is: how much water, the height and the length of the tank, etc.

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