Fish for 29 gallon Biocube?

[Wuzzo]

I am getting a 29 gal Biocube and have 2 Clownfish in other tanks. I am going to combine the two tanks into this one and I can't think of what fish I would like to get. I am gonna have 2 Ocellaris Clownfish in the 29 gallon. I was wondering if anybody had any recommendations? (Also sorry I've been gone for so long telling everybody I was gonna come back! I am actually coming back now.)

Some easy to keep and cool looking would be... Purple Firefish, watchman goby, clown goby. I would stay away from most damsel's, they get pretty aggressive.

I have a 32g with a clown and a royal gramma. I have a green clown goby and a Midas blenny in QT.

Watchman goby and pistol shrimp for sure

Well, I had a Watchman and a pistol shrimp which kinda killed like 70 - 90 dollars of coral frags in another tank. So I don't know if I wanna take the risk again.

 

[Katrina71]

I understand that. Ok, Tailspot Blenny!

Firfish goby
clownfish
basslet such as strawberry
6 line wrasse
Panda goby
bi-color blenny

I created a stocking list and wondered if it was good. I feel they are compatible and can care for them, but I don't know if they would be good for the tank size. My list is:

The two Clown Fish I already have
Fire Fish
Tailspot Blenny
Royal Gramma

If anybody has anything to maybe add to it, or take out or swap, or maybe if the list isn't good, tell me please! Thanks!

are the clowns already paired or are they alone in separate tanks?

They are in seperate tanks because ones buddy died and the other was in another tank before it. I'm gonna try to move the clownfish together if they don't fight soon.

Do you guys think I could have a Coral Beauty maybe as a main piece? I really love angelfish and the colors are beautiful! It also is only around 30$ and fits my budget. Would it be good for the tank?

Most people will tell you it isn’t a big enough tank. 50 is better. I’m on the fence, personally. A pygmy angel would fit a bit better than a dwarf.

Is there any angelfish I could put in?

 

[hllb]

Maybe a cherub or flameback, both pygmies.

Is there any others that are cheaper?

Not sure on that.

Not sure on that.

Could I put a Coral Beauty in? The 29 gal Biocube has a lot of swimming room and I've seen people put them in tanks like this size and do fine.

You can try. Go with a small one.

I might as well try it. It will be in at least like 5 or 6 months because it isn't even set up yet and I have a couple other fish that are more peaceful to add before (due to any aggression issues).

 

[Wuzzo]

Do you think a Royal Gramma could go with it? (Edit: I'm guessing not?)
