So I have a 26 gallon cube with a clown, mandarin, twin spot goby, and a small fire shrimp. I recently got my small yellow wrasse out because he got to the size of killing my CUC, I was wondering if anyone has any suggestions for silly nano fish or nano free swimming fish. The only ones I had in mind was a neon cleaner goby, tailspot blenny, and a clown goby (since I’m not keeping any sps) but those are all perching fish. Let me know and thank you!

P.s I’m only planning to add 1-2 more small fish

Clown pair?
I did want to add another clown for my established female because she is very sweet but Im waiting for my LFS to stock the right sized clown since she is quite big and can still be aggressive (she mostly hates my hermit crabs)

A royal gramma, peaceful, out and about with a bright splash of color. Of course a tailspot , small fish with a huge personality.
definitely set on the tail spot! I had one in my old tank and he was my absolute favorite, such a funny little guy <3

These are kind of expensive but a banded possum wrasse is a great option. They are small and very peaceful compared to other wrasse.
ive heard of those and i know they do great in nanos, but im worried they might kill my CUC i have a bunch of small nassarius and ceriths snails.

Same here I think I might still try one though.
if you do let me know how it goes! We have similar tank sizes so it will work out well if i decide to get one
