Want to add one more fish to 12 NC..?

[sophia101]

Hello all,
Right now i have a 12g NC with a mated pair of small oceallris clowns..i really want to get one other fish, im thinking a goby of some sort. Would this be possible without being overstocked?? What type of goby to you all reccomend? (one with good personality, easy care and small). I do 10% water changes every Wednesday. I also have a few different zoos and corals and 15 lbs of LR..also a variety of snails and hermits.. Thanks guys!

I'm personally looking for a bluespot jawfish, they are awesome! If you have a sandbed definitely look into one of these guys!

yellow watchaman gobies are really cool, and they have great peronalities.

I've got a 10AGA also with a pair of mated A. Ocellaris and will be adding a yellow clown goby shortly. They're small and pretty fun to watch. I do however run a nano remora skimmer so that definitely helps with nitrate control. I would entertain the idea that you might need a skimmer bc the clowns alone produce a lot of waste and adding another fish might throw your parameters off.

What are your current parameter?

I've heard yellow clown gobies don't do very well without acropora for them to host, this could be scuttlebutt, but you might want to check into it anyways.

What do your gobies eat? I would also like to get one but am worried he will starve.

they eat anything and everything they think is food
