I have a 37gal reef tank with 1 true perc, one sixline. my other stats are in my sig. I want a cool or colorful fish that will eat flake food or pellet food. What do you recommend?


--------------------
Tank: 37 gal glass tank black trim
Heater: 150 W heater if needed.
Protein Skimmer: CPR BakPak and uses a maxijet 1200
Powerheads: Maxi-jet 900 & Maxijet 1200
Live Rock: 50lbs (total) of Tonga Branch, Fiji,and Marshall Island
Live Sand: About and inch
Lighting: Current dual Compact Flourescent lightining system with Dual bulbs and moon light. Each bulb is 65 watts for a total of 130 watts. Bulbs: SunPaq Dual Daylight 6700°K/10000°K, and a SunPaq Dual Actinic 420/460nm
Livestock: 15 Blue leghermit crabs, 10 snails, 2 astrea snales, 2 zebra turbo snales, 1 cleaner shrimp, 1 true perc clown, 1 lawnmower blenny, 1 six line wrasse
Corals: Zoas, bubble tip coral, Xenia, Frogspawn
 
If you want to go cheaper than the Helfrichi, the normal Purple firefish is pretty good-looking as well.
 
maybe check out some dwarf angels, different than what you got and some are pretty cool, ( i.e. coral beauty, flame, potters)
 
what's the success rate with keeping these dwarf angels with soft and hard corals? i may want to get one but don't want them eating my zoas.
 
I wouldn't do it. Mine's in a crowded 55 and I can't wait to move it in the 125. How about a green clown goby, maybe yasha and pistol shrimp pair, neon goby, a small wrasse like a carpenters wrasse?
 
Royal Grammas are cheap and nice color, but I've got a bas%&rd one in my 37g. I can't catch him and he's killed anything I've tried to add. I have a green clown goby, but unless you have a fairly open tank, you'll rarely see him.
 
I have a few of what has been listed. The blenny, Purple firefish, Black cap and the carpenter are all great colorful fish.
