So, 12 gallon biocube, 18 pounds lr in the tank, 3 i nthe back, 48 watts light, moderate flow, soft corals.

Have one true percula clownfish at the moment.
Looking to get something new, jsut one more fish, to relaly complete the tank's fishy inhabitants.
Any recomendations? Another clown? Goby? Yada yada

In all honesty, i'm just looking for some ideas to sift through and see.

So yeah, if you have any suggestions, (Although a panther grouper is out of the question), feel fre to drop 'em. Can't hurt!

Thanks
 
Eh, i've had firefish in the past. Somehow (Still not sure how...) The guy was ble to jump ouut of the biocube...Despite me havign a tight fitting lid...
Rightn ow i'm thinking i might try to do a pair of clowns, and possibly, eventually, a neon goby as well..It really depends on how comfortable i am in a month as to the adding of a neon or not.
 
those firefish always find a way to jump out. I had one with a lid too and he was able to get out. Too bad, they are neat looking fish.

If you wanted a unique fish, you could go with something like a yellow stripe clingfish. Not many people have them, but I have heard they can be hard to keep. Here is a link to see one. http://www.liveaquaria.com/product/prod_display.cfm?c=15+2124+1483&pcatid=1483

You could probably get away with a chalk bass. some places have them listed as needing a thirty gallon, but people have them in ten gallons. same thing with a yellow or blue assesor. and I think the yellowhead jawfish are really neat.

If you do get a goby, you could do the goby shrimp pair
 
Whic hhas been the apple of my eye for -quite- a while. Still, i'm afraid for several reasons o nthe shrimp-goby in my tank.

For one, this will be, thanks to college next year, my only tank for the next year and a half. As cool as the shrimp-goby pair is, i'm afriad that considering i already have a mithrax crab, cleaner shrimp, and the lsit of corals i still want...Well, i jsut don't want to push it...
Patience, and restraint..The two keys to saltwater, and the two banes of it as well.

Still, how knows. I think wednesday i'll pick up anotherp ercula for my current one, let them mate, do that whole thing...

And, in a motnh or so, evaluate what i want...Maybe i'll try exporting a few moembers to make room for the shrimp goby, who knows....

Buit those are some -sweet- suggestiosn, researching them all now. Thanks for the piece of advice.
