Hello, I've been looking into getting a new fish for my biocube 29, but I'm not sure if a have enough space, or which one to get.
current stocking list:
pair of ocellaris clowns
ora blue mandarin
yellow watchman goby

thinking about purchasing one of these:
pajama/bangai cardinal pair
some type of blenny
ora whitespotted filefish
maybe royal gramma

I'm looking for something peaceful that'll use the space in the tank, and it would be great if it were captive bred. also we go on vacations sometimes so something that could be fed with an auto feeder would be good.
would love some recommendations:)
 
A small wrasse - either Wetmorella spp. a Pseudocheilinops ataenia (my preference).

That is a fish that would swim around the tank and constantly be moving. They will eat flake/pellets too.

A black cap basslet (gramma sibling) is a cool royal gramma alternative that you don't see too often.
 
I liked the sound of a wrasse, but won't they destroy my pod population?
I'm definitely considering something in the basslet family though.

Instead of a yellow watchman I suggest getting a transparent cave goby they are very full of personality they are also captive bred by ORA and also I think you should go with the royal gramma.

I already have the yellow watchman goby, and I think he's awesome. are grammas compatible with mandarins? the mandarin is very small and I don't want any aggression towards him.

My gramma kicked the bubbles out of my orange spot goby on first into but then they were fine. Sixline has the gramma cowering in a cave now.
