Need suggestions

[MyOwnGrowOp]

Ok so there are a million threads about what fish to put in their nano tanks. But I have a bit more specific request. We have a 25 gallon top down tank, so it's shallow. 24x24x10. On top of it being shallow, it's also bare bottom. So now with that information, what fish would everyone suggest I add to the clowns? We love wrasses but some want sand beds to hide in, and others are notorious jumpers. Any suggestions for fish everyone??

All fish are jumpers. But if you dont have a lid I would avoid gobies and wrasse to start. Perhaps a pygmy angel, or member of the basslet family?

With the exception of royal gramma's, aren't basslets like dottybacks more in the semi-aggressive category? I definitely don't want anything in here to end up being a neusence. I had a royal dottyback like 10 years ago and I ended up dismantling a 60 gallon tank to try to catch him as he was beating on many of the fish. Is this the case with a lot of the basslet family?

I think so, but the chalk bass is a peaceful addition and they dont get too big.

A pigmy/possum wrasse?!

Also, royal gramms are peaceful. just make sure it is a royal gramma and not the blue eyed dottyback..
