Yep! I'm pretty sure I will change my mind and that coming week! It's a woman's prerogative to do that you know haha!
Stick with juveniles and I promise you’ll be fine. You may see some fighting between them if they’re not already paired but that’s just to assert dominance for who’s becoming the female but nothing serious. At some point in time with almost any fish you get you’ll see some sort of territorial behavior but that’s all normal. For the most part it’ll never really be consistent

Oh no! Don't tell me that! Well, I guess it's the same with children so you got to love what you care about with all your heart!

Welcome to R2R
If you do get clowns, get 2 and get them at the same time. Lawnmower blenneys are a good option to to sift the sand.
I don't really like pajama cardinals, but we all have our personal preferences.
I do try to stick with livestock that will serve a purpose in my aquarium, otherwise it's just a mouth to feed and create waste.

Can't wait to see your build thread.

Def go for utilitarian fish! Makes maintenance so much easier! Also I thought it was the diamond goby that are good at sifting sand? My lawnmower only seems to be interested in algae if that’s the case, so I ended up getting a diamond goby and that thing inhales sand all day
