I have a 40 breeder with 1 clownfish, 1 banggai cardinal, 1 royal gramma, and 1 melanurus wrasse. What else would be good additions that would get along with my current list. I have had these same 4 together for over a year, and they get along great. I dont want to upset the apple cart as they say, but would like some more movement in the tank.

You could try another clownfish and go for a pair or some more cardinals but if you want something different you could try a Midas blenny

I just added tailspot blenny and green chromis to my 40 breeder. Chromis is super active. Blenny swims around a lot more than I expected and always near the front glass and picking at rocks. Would highly recommend both.

They were added to a pair of clowns and an orchid dottyback that have been in tank for about 9 months. All together for 3 days now with limited aggression.

Big concern is uronema with Chromis. I started with 3. One was DOA, and the second got some kind of swim bladder infection during QT (not uronema). 30 days of QT and hopeful I dodged the bullet with the final chromis.
