I have a biocube 32 with 2 clownfish. I'm new to saltwater so am pretty uninformed about my options. I'm going to buy some zoas and softies next. What 1 or 2 fish should I choose that would be entertaining or visually attractive to watch? I'm going to give my daughter the pick when I have some options. I've done some research and it appears it should be a govt, firefish, dartfish or a chromis. Any other suggestions or any specific type of those listed above that would be a great choice?

I have always been a huge fan of Blennies and Gobies. There are a lot of different ones to choose from and they are all small so they don't take up much space so they are great for nano tanks.

agreed, blennies and gobies and maybe a 6 line wrasse as they eat pests also
Gobies and blennies are awesome, just avoid mandarin gobies and scooter blennies unless you can find captive bred.

I have a yellow and green clown in my tank and they are fun to watch and are so small they hardly impact any bioload. Another good one for a smaller tank with a lot of color is a Royal Gamma Basslet. Mine is out and about most of the day and I feel like it is always giving me a disapproving look. You could also add a cleaner shrimp and few small crabs as well.

Orchid dottyback and would highly recommend finding one that is captive bred.
