I just upgraded my brackish tank from a 40 breeder to a 75. I must say, I really like the new setup. I got rid of the RFUG, replaced the crushed coral with a mix of pool sand with some CC mixed in, and got rid of the industrial-looking pvc and plexi ramp for some natural driftwood haul-out areas.
But, the tank now looks very empty. I have an atlantic mudskipper, a violet goby, 8 bumblebee gobies, and probably a dozen or so mollies in various life stages. It looked good in the 40, but the 75 looks positively barren. I know the violet goby will grow some, its only about 8" right now. I plan on getting about 8-10 more bbgs, since they're so cute.
I'm looking for suggestions for a new addition. I originally wanted an archer, but I feel like the tank will be too small, and since they apparently prefer groups, thats out. No scats or monos either. I was thinking possibly a puffer, but not sure if it would beat up on the other fish. Any ideas for some oddballs I could add to this setup? SG is kept at 1.010.
