I've got a 40 gallon bare bottom reef tank, 1 power head for now, skimmer, and 60 lbs of live rock. Right now I have 2 types of zoas, a big turbo snail a Fiji damsel and a clownfish. What types of fish can I out in the tank? I want small fish breeds so I can have more of them, nonaggression Ofcorse, something colorful, any suggestions?
 
Firefish are great lookers but notorious for jumping so a cover is recommended. I like the Royal Gamma but you can't have any similar looking fish to it or it might get aggressive. Otheriwse it's tame.
 
Damsel may make it hard for peaceful fish, but orchid dottyback, cardinals, any of the smaller pygmy angels, flame hawk, some wrasses-just make sure they don't bury themselves would work. If u could have a section with sand you would have more options.
 
It seems like jumpers can always find the gaps. :( If you were to get one I would recommend something to cover the last 20%. Maybe if you have some spare egg crate or mesh you could do a diy cover.
