I have a question about tankmates.....

I am setting up a 25g and am not sure if what i want in it is ok.....i have a feeling that it is to much but that's why i am asking now, not after i buy the fish......

I would really like to get a long nosed hawk, a clown goby, and maybe a firefish.......will these not work together or are they just not the right size for my tank........any help is appreciated......i am aware that the hawk can get 5" and they recomend at least a 30g but will the 5g really make that much of a difference?.....

if anyone has any suggestions on what livestock to put in a 25g, feel free to post.......

with fish, less is more IMO ... I have a 29 w/ 2 clowns, 6 | , & Bi-Blenny ... I would skip the long nose hawk for sure! W/ clown gobies I've had some bad luck ... they are quite stupid fish from my experience ... I've had one run into an anemone and another just die one day after being totally normal the night before. However that's just my experience and I know others have had better, just saying they are not the smartest. Blennies are good unless you want to keep clams ... otherwise they help with algae ... Firefish are great for nanos! Watchman gobies are fun too ... anyway I'm rambling ...
