Hello! I have this IM Nuvo 15 in my bedroom that has been running for a few years now. Over the last few months, my sexy shrimp slowly started passing away 1 by 1. Everything in the tank is fine so I looked into their lifespans. 1-2 years is common, up to 3, in captivity. I hit the 2 year mark a few months ago.

There were also 2 Wyoming white clowns, but one mysteriously vanished ~6 months ago. I think my void kitten had something to do with it because I couldn’t find its missing body until a few weeks later. It was under my desk the tank is next to, and the first place I looked once I noticed it was missing. I tried adding in another, much smaller, clown but I think it had been solo for too long.

I’m thinking about selling the clown and 3 RBTA that like to go on walk-abouts every 6 months or so. I was also limited to just soft corals (minus zoas) other than the monti, because the sexy shrimp harassed them too much. They killed off a few zoas before I realized it was them.

So, if you had an empty 15g already stocked with coral and CuC, what would you add in? I have a breeding pair of clowns in my 40b, so looking to avoid more clowns in this one this time. The substrate is crushed coral in this tank, so I do have to keep that in consideration when picking future inhabitants.

Tailspot blenny, or the classic yellow watchman goby + pistol shrimp, but this is not exactly ideal with the crushed coral.
I already have a YWG + Pistol shrimp in another tank. Tailspot is a good option for this tank though.
 
Possum or pink streak wrasse. Neon goby .
Rock Flower Garden, with a Possum Wrasse as King?
A wrasse would have a field day in that tank due to the amount of giant amphipods running it currently.

There are 3 RFA in there currently. The 3rd is in the back left corner for some reason.
 
Still looking for ideas for this tank. Leaning towards a pink streaked wrasse currently along with a smaller blenny and/or goby.
 
Dracula goby could be cool. Mine is out most of the time and they are pretty unique
