Need ideas for stocking my 20 gal..

[mfp4073]

I have finally got my new 20 gal high tank. I think the rockwork is done....ok maybe not, maybe...DAMN....(yeah, its been like that). I am intending on a pair of small clowns, probably occ, but will depend on what I find locally. There is one yellow gobie in there, a red emerald crab, couple of peppermint shrimp. And I feel I need something else. Needs to be interesting, small, and easy. Any ideas?


I look around the fish websites, but am not coming up with too much that is really jumping out at me.

And yes, I will be posting pics really soon... if nothing else to get a second opinion on the rockwork!

Tail spot blenny!! I feel like such a geek for suggesting that fish to everyone, but they are amazing. They stay small, they have great colors, theyre completely peaceful, and they have the coolest personality!

i would get a mated pair of hell freaky fire fish :-D i seen a pair up at reef works the other day - damn they were cool - but that is if money doesnt mean too much to you - how about a yellow headed jawfish

Be careful with the jawfish make sure you have a lid on your tank if you go that route! They are cool and almost any blenny is awesome too

Reef works only has one left now.
Very nice store.

you bought one! awesome "bows down" hahah man its late

the yellow jawfish are pretty cool looking. And I really like my dusky blennie. But I was almost more thinking something that was a midwater fish

i just had bad luck with my anthias or else i would have said them - oh a 20 gal - orchid dottybacks? i have a couple of them and there color is by far the darkest and coolest looking of any fish

 

[lifesworksataol]

you know a 20 gal is probably a little too small for them as well now that i think about it - i dont want the tank police to come after me tonight
