Hi! We’ve had the tank since October 24 and we have a pair of clownfishes and a royal gramma , also a fire shrimp and some CUC. My question is , what would you add to your tank now with the experience , that could add colour and love together peacefully?

A Chalk goby I wish i had added earlier rather that later, I have little problem sand going on corals, but do brilliantly looking after the sand and fairly entertaining. One every couple of week I flatten sand back down. And that's it, and love all scraps of the food the other fish are done with

How's your copepod population? Mandarin dragonets look great, you can also look into getting one from Biota as they will eat frozen food.

Look into a sand sifting goby, there's a bunch of different kids, just make sure you get the kind that stays near the bottom of the tank rather than the ones that make sand piles or swim up and drop the sand over your corals.

Going slightly bigger and potentially a little more more aggressive would be a flame hawkfish, coral beauty, and one spot foxface.

I have a 90 gallon … you think no more fish than 3?
As your tank matures, you definitely have room for more fish. I have a 56g column and I have 12 fish, all easy peaceful fish and no aggression. Nothing disrupts the serenity of a reef more than bullying! I have 2 firefish gobies, 2 pajama cardinalfish, 2 masked gobies, a female redfin fairy wrasse, a coral beauty angelfish, a midas blenny, an ocellaris clownfish, a yellow watchman goby and a royal gramma. There is a variety of shapes and color. The different fish occupy different territories. Except for the wrasse, they are all pretty much omnivores so will eat flake, pellet and frozen food
