Another Firefish?

Hi Folks,
I just put in a firefish into my 10gallon nano three days ago..... It's the only fish in there right now, and it looks so lonely, hehehe.....
I was thinking of getting another one for him to hang with. Is this advised? I've read that they can get quite territorial. Will my first one not accept the new one? or kill it?
I was also thinking of getting a small yellow watchman goby as well.

Thanks.
 
Thumbs up to the watchman. Re the second firefish, you pretty well have to add them together---BUT you can get a different type of firefish (if you have a red, get a purple) and things will be cool. Note my fish list, below. The only thing I regret is not getting 3 chromises when I had the chance: they're another that has to go in together.
 
i had 2 in a 20 gallon and the bigger kept eating the others "unicorn fin" when it would get too long then he finally killed him--- i think you need more space theyll kill eachother --same with my clowns-they look lonely,but they really arent. try a diff fish like pseudochromis or a royal gramma
 
Would I be able to get a clown to go with my firefish and watchman?
Or is that bioload too high? i don't have a skimmer on my 10gallon, only 15lbs of live rock and 20lbs of live sand with about 220gph filtration.
