I really would like some ideas as to what type of fish to get. I have 3 shrimps in there so I don't want anything that will eat them. I have the chocolate chip starfish and two percula clown fish. I also have a scooter blennie that I just got extra food for.

I really want a porcupine puffer but I know he was shot down before and I've just decided that I'll have to wait for my cowfish and/or boxfish until I can have them in a seperate tank and be more experienced.

I wanted a yellow watchman gobie, a lawnmower blennie. I like the niger trigger, he is the most tame correct? will he still eat my shrimp and snails though? I want a sea urchin too. I like the way the dogface puffers and boxfish look. I want something with a "face" that only a mother could love :) I like the faces of the gobies too and would also like a yellow tang.

So with those preferences, could you give me some ideas? I have been reading but I tend to forget which fish are more compatible.
 
Why don't you tell us what you're thinking of and we'll let you know. That way the tank has all your own flavor. :)

Well I had wanted a longhorned cowfish, a porpupine puffer, yellow spotted boxfish, yellow tang, trigger and dogface puffer :) So that gives you an idea of the "look' I like. I love to see the lips and big eyes of the fish. I also like the watchmen gobies face. Something that has character.

I'm concerned the tang will eat my shrimps as well as the two pufferfish I want (Yes, I know that I cannot have all of those fish, they are just want I want). I'm not overly thrilled with bule tang and I just love the way the trigger fish look.

So I want the odd looking fish, that others may find ugly I guess.
 
What Fish

Hi i,m fairly new to the hobby but I do know that all puffers just love to eat shrimp so they are off the choices if you love you shrimps as for the other i,m not sure
 
Longhorn Cowfish get over a foot and a half
