80g All in one
Tank is been running for almost 2 years. Last fish in was the mandarin about 5 months ago

Current Stock list:
Six-line wrasse
2 Clowns
Tail Spot blenny
Midas blenny
Yellow Watchman
Spotted mandarin
Pistol shrimp
Cleaner shrimp
Peppermint shrimp
Anemone shrimp
Bunch of crabs ect

Ironically, its the midas blenny thats the bully. The 6line is a model citizen.

I'm unsure what fish to put in next. I dont want to put any tangs or another wrasse.

I will quarantine the fish.

Its funny because it is almost looks like i have no fish because the clown fish sit in the corner, tail spot sits, midas usually sits.. ect ect. The only one always out is the 6line and the mandarin lol

I would consider a fusilier damselfish or two. I have two, and they are awesome. They are always out, swimming around. They are like little dogs, wanting me to feed them. Mine have been perfect tank mates.

I got them because they are not aggressive like other damsels, and wont pick each other off like chromis. Plus I like the color they are.

I've included a picture from Dr. Reef's website.

They are definitely one fish I don't regret. They swarm food when I put it in.

Here is a photo of them in the tank.

*sorry about the photo quality, I'm cleaning my glass, and they are zooming around.
