Last fish ideas

[kenc87]

So I'm thinking I may add one last fish, looking for suggestions. Keep in my mind I need totally reef safe as I have clams and such. This would be the last fish going in my 65 reef. Current fish include: 2 snowflake clowns, 1 leopard wrasse, 1 yellow corris wrasse, 1 royal gramma, and last but not least 1 very fat mandarin lol let me know

A Combtooth Blenny (although I would suggest a species other than a lawnmower). I really,really like my Starry Blenny and am planning to try a bi-color blenny in another tank as soon as I remove the worthless lawnmower blenny....

Maybe I'm crazy but I've heard some blennies have a tendency to nip at clams

My Starry Blenny was in with a deresa clam for a long time without issue (my wrasse was actually the problem, kept knocking the clam over...), and my lawnmower blenny is in with a crocea without a problem. I have read that bi-color blennies may nip clams in smaller systems, so just be careful with selection. Many people also keep tail-spot blennies in reef systems with clams without problems.

I would not count them out necessarily.

Well definitely a group of fish to keep in mind
