What fish would you recommend?

[Joevember]

I have a 65 gallon reef tank and 29 gallon sump with 5 fish. View attachment 24545
2 clowns, a 6 line wrasse, a yellowtail, and a coral beauty. I'm trying to get rid of the coral beauty because it is eating picking on some soft corals and my clam, but I also don't want to flush it...
Anyways, I need to figure out a fish to replace it, and maybe some more fish to add in. I'm kind of a light feeder, and my CUC is small. Any recommendations would help.

Wrasses! Fairy, melanarus, etc...

Possibly a flame angel. That could be a hit or miss.

Should I add any inverts in? Maybe a shrimp? I need to get some hermits anyways.

I really like wrasses, but the 6 line is already very established so I don't think I can.

Then on the same token. The six line will possibly destroy the shrimp.

Didn't know that about them. Thanks.

I’ve got a couple of well established cleaner shrimp in a 30L with a yellow tail damsel, no problems.

As far as fish, while not all that colorful, I have a Starry Blenny that is peaceful, easy to keep and has a great personality.

Think I will try to find a starry blenny and probably a sleeper goby by what I've read.

Looks like it will be a great fit for my tankmates! Thanks!

i actually had problems with a Starry and Gobys! If that was my tank i would look for Sailfin Blenny- way more peaceful!

 

[Mjl714]

Oh, you found your Starry Blenny agressive? I don’t have any gobys in the tank withblenny.

just saying... similar looking fish might be a problem. btw they are really cool fish. if you not planning any gobies go for it!

I have a starry blenny named ceviche, it gets along with everything and has a fun personality

 

[wrasse]

Sailfin blenny trys t take a bite out of me when I put my hand in the tank. I think he is just a punk.
For new fish, get rid of the six line as well. Then you can try a variety of wrasse. Fairy or flasher wrasse great fish with a lot of variety in colors.

Need a blenny for sure
