New addition /s

[gareth.hubbarde]

Since the untimely death of my dwarf angel my tank is looking quite empty with nothing really swimming around. It is stocked as below.
After recommendations for 1 or two reef safe additions. I like my shrimps but it's only the cleaner that is visible unless it's feeding time. The algae blenny is awesome but not really a swimmer. The tank is 6 months old and stable with soft corals and 2 lps.


94litre kent marine bio reef
17kg live rock
4kg sand, 2kg as live.
100g fluval clearmax
Filter floss
1000 l/pH return pump
100w heater
Hydor 3200 wave maker
Tmc aquabar t series leds:
Fiji purple 80%
Reef white 60%

1 Mexican turbo snail
1 turbo snails
3 red legged hermit crab
1 blue legged hermit
2 nassarius snails
2 super nassarius

1 lawnmower blenny
1 hi fin goby
1 Tiger pistol shrimp
1 red fire shrimp
1 skunk cleaner shrimp

How did the dwarf angel die?

I have a couple of banggai cardinals that have done a good job of making the rest of my inhabitants more bold.

I don't know what happened to it, it was fine then one day hid all day. The next morning it was in the clutches of cleaning shrimp. [emoji53]
Am looking for something that coukd swim around a bit now. Would those cardinals do that?
Thank you for your reply BTW.

Sorry to hear that.

Yep, banggai cardinals swim/float around in the water column. They dart about a bit when they see or think they see food and they're a pretty peaceful fish. Would get on with everything you've got in your tank currently.

My starry blenny was a bit shy before I got the cardinals but he's often out and about now.

Cool thanks for your replies, it is appreciated.

I love my clowns. I'm not sure what size tank they require but they are always out. Always! My flame hawk is out all the time too but he isn't 100% shrimp safe so maybe not one of those. They have one in a tank that looks like that at the LFS. My firefish is out often, not always but often.
