Stocking my 29 Gallon

[Grandlotus]

Currently I have a: pep shrimp/skunk cleaner shrimp/2x clowns.
Was thinking about adding another fish...
Ideas?
Perhaps three blue green chromis?

For some unknown reason, chromis are becoming problematic to keep.

What kind of clowns do you have? I would have a look thru this list of fish, see if you find something you like and ask whether or not it's compatible with your clowns:

possum/pink streak wrasse, most shrimp/small perching gobies, most blennies, cardinals, assessors, basslets, dwarf angelfish, etc

how about a Royal Gramma.

Firefish gobys are great and do well with territorial clowns. I have 2xclowns 1firefish 1mandarin in a 30gal

flame angel?

flame angel?

Too small for a 29 gal. You could probably do a small cherub, but a lot of people would find even that recommendation questionable.

Size isn't everything...

I think he means that a 29G is too small a tank for a flame angel.

To the OP - you could do a dwarf angel in a 29G for a spell (I did for almost a year) but it won't be truly happy. I only saw a few small bouts of belligerence and aggression. I put the fact that I was able to do this down to having around 50lbs of LR with lots of nooks and crannies. When I upgraded to a 40G, however, the behavioral transformation was quite remarkable and the angel definitely looks more comfortable.

I would recommend a blenny (I love my bicolor - he looks like a character from Farscape), a royal gramma, or a firefish as much better alternatives.
