G'day

I am in the planning of a large reef 10 x 3 x 2 1/2 or 10 x 2 1/2 x 2 1/2, I had intended to get gold striped moroon clowns however feel they may be a bit aggresive what clowns would be compatible with the following list

M Green Mandarin Synchiropus splendidus
FM Green Mandarin Synchiropus splendidus

Powder Blue Tang Acanthurus leucosternon
Blue Tang Paracanthurus hepatus
Yellow Tang Zebrasoma flavescens

Flame Angelfish Centropyge loriculus
Golden Pygmy Angel Centropyge aurantia

Royal Gramma Basslet Gramma loreto
Brazilian Gramma Basslet Gramma brasiliensis

Purple Firefish Nemateleotris decora
Firefish Nemateleotris magnifica

Redlip Blenny Ophioblennius atlanticus
Lawnmower Blenny Salarias fasciatus

Orchid Dottyback Pseudochromis fridmani

Yellow Clown Goby Gobiodon okinawae
Twinspot Goby Signigobius biocellatus

Long Nose Hawkfish Oxycirrhites typus

Laboutei Fairy Wrasse Cirrhilabrus laboutei
Scott's Fairy Wrasse Australian Cirrhilabrus scottorum

Blue-green Chromis Chromis viridis

Would like some other fish stocking suggestions that would suit this list.

Regards Darren

In my humble opinion all Clownfish Species are compatible with your wish list.

Yep. I kinda dislike the False Perc term. They're true Ocellaris ;)

Hi Darren,

You must have found a very old picture. I haven't had a Powder Blue since the mid-80's.

IMO if a Powder Blue isn't the boss then it won't live long. I acquired that Powder Blue in 1979 and it was the boss the entire time I had it.

Guy,

at what stage did you add the PBT as in first fish......last fish?

You are testing my memory now. I believe I started with a pair of Ocellaris, then a Red Coris Wrasse and then the PBT.
