I have a 30G reef tank with medium flow. The coral are growing in, and I am planning what fish to add. I want a low stock, low maintenance tank, and the ability to use an eheim auto feeder for travel. What would be good fish for this scenario other than a clownfish?

Most fish- depending on what you put in your auto feeder ;) Do some research on what fish you want, and sort out how to feed them after that..

Note: I struggled a lot getting my anthias' to eat anything i could dispense using an auto feeder, so now i am dosing liquid food on a dosing pump. A sort of auto feeder i suppsoe...

Almost any fish will do ok with auto feeder. Royal Gramma or a smaller fairy/ flasher wrasse would do well I think. Firefish also.

This. Just about everyone can be trained to eat off of a auto feeder. I luckily get my small harem of anthias to eat flake & pellets with no issues.

I want your anthias' in stead of mine :face-with-tears-of-joy: I mean, my lyretails are pretty- but to set up that liquid feeder just for them? :face-with-monocle: At least it satisfied the gear junkie in me..

Hm, it seemed like a number of fish I was interested in would need target feeding. Opinions on pistol shrimp goby pair? Longnose hawkfish? Toby puffer?
