Help Select my final fish

[bookpile]

Hi,

We have an Innovative Marine Nuvo 40 tank setup since June. It is very healthy and stable so far. Here is our list:

Pair of Ocellaris Clownsfish
1 Lawnmower Blenny
1 Purple Firefish
1 Cleaner Shrimp
1 Peppermint Shrimp

We'd like to add a fifth and final fish. Everything we're thinking about is either too big or I'm afraid will be aggressive. Open to any suggestions!

Thanks,

Travis

A Royal gramma or an orchid dottyback would make suitable candidates or even another firefish.

A flasher wrasse or a pygmy wrasse like a possum wrasse would be really cool additions

There are a lot of choices you can make for the last fish and you've had some good ones. Here are a few that I have in my 40b. I've got a total of 9 fish but these stand out as good choices for you.

McCosker's wrasse
Midas Blenny
Royal Gramma
Cherub Angel

Thanks for the suggestions. I just ordered a Filamented flasher Wrasse from live aquaria.

I would recommend the Midas Blenny.

I say get a couple of clown gobies

With only fish left to get, I would for sure get a dwarf angel. Flame or bicolor would be my suggestion. Potters are beautiful but you already have orange with your clowns.

You need a swimmer!

Another good choice for a showy fish would be a mystery or melanarus wrasse. Might have to lose the shrimp though...

And if it were me, I'd get a few more. I have 8 in my 42g

Great choice! Be sure to take some pictures, please!
