Help me pick fish for 60 cube reef

Here is what I have found. If you get them small they don't have much interest in inverts. Also, if the inverts were established and he was added last, then he probably wouldn't eat them. Hope this helps. :)
 
pair of clowns
royal gramma
a firefish (maybe a male female pair)
Green mandarin (if I can find a trained one)
Im thinking I would like to have a goby and candy cane shrimp pair

Thats what I have as of right now
 
I have been looking at live aquaria :)

I really like lps corals like frogpawn and torch corals and christata coral

I really like zoas

There is a place like 5 min from my house where I can get really nice sps corals so I am becoming more and more interested in those as well
 
Frogspawn is one of my favorite too. Just stay away from NPS, unless you want to feed them daily. Also some LPS have long stinging tentacles and need their space.
 
I will definately be staying away from NPS, as far as stinging I dont plan on having many longtentacle corals maybe just a torch.

One thing that has really grown on me are some of the rarer mushrooms.
 
Since you want personality a mandarin is about as good as it gets. My spotted male dragonet follows me around the tank and when I sit in front of the tank he watches me. He eats mysis so food is not an issue. I'm glad your looking for one that has been trained because most people do this after they realize their tank can't support one and several have died. Even if you get him trained make sure you can form a feeding spot in a low to no flow zone in your tank. This way the fish can eat at its own pace and food doesn't get blown away. My male remembers where to go at feeding time and pops up on top of the "feeding rock" waiting to be fed from a turkey baster. Feed the other fish first so they are less likely to steal his food.
