fish options

[bryan oestreich]

so my blenny died a few weeks ago and my clownfish decided to go suicide and i found him on the floor dead so now i only have my leopard wrasse a pajama cardinal and a chalk bass. i do have a purple dottyback but he has been so terrirtoral its annoying so i am bringing him back to the LFS.

my questions is what is compatible with my leopard wrasse. my cardinal and chalk are the least of my worries because they just hide unless there being fed so its just waste of bioload. i been looking at maroon clownfish, but i dont know if it would get along with my wrasse. advice? ive also been looking at lionfish but i would like opinions on its bioload and feeding habits. but im open to any options just trying to get some life out of my tank and no more hiding fish. my wrasse and what was my clown were the only 2 active fish they you actually could enjoy watching

Reef or no reef? Tank size?

Personally i think lion fish are boring.

I would suggest a tang, dwarf angel, or perhaps an anthias

Or a blue jaw trigger if you want one that interacts with you. Lol

Reef a few softies and some Lps and one sps plate 60 gallon

You could do a small tang. Maybe a kole or a purple

This is my setup. I would love a kole tang. I think I have a good amount of open space for it to swim my wrasse loves it

My 60 gal

Lionfish will eat a lot or most of what you have already. How about a flasher wrasse of some sort?

Kole tang. Forget lion fish. Eats everything that moves, grow to much and can harm you.
The kole it's a great fish.

A pistol shrimp/goby pair could be interesting. I'm especially fond of the yasha, but it could get lost in a tank that size
