I have a 50 gal cube that is housing a wyoming white and a snowflake clown. They are about 1- 1 1/4 long. In a month or so I'm looking to add another fish. Dont have any corals right now but they are a possibility later on. Any suggestions? Thanks.
 
You could add some peaceful fish. If the clowns are the only one in the tank though they may have claimed the whole tank as theirs and it might be hard to add more fish.
 
Lots of options I would think depending on the aggressiveness of the clowns. A shrimp/goby pair is always nice. Some sort of blennie that stays on/in the rockwork, maybe a fang tooth blennie(like a midas or canary), firefish, basslet, or smaller wrasse like a pink streaked or a possum. I'm doubtless forgetting some possible choices.
 
A Flame Hawkfish would add some personality, they are cool fish.
Also on a blenny, I picked up an ORA Smith’s Blenny last year which is outgoing and has personality. Always out in front of the tank swimming around.

As mentioned above your clowns maybe a little territorial. Either fish I mentioned could handle it.

Dottybacks could hold their own but some can be mean, even though they’re on the smaller size.
 
Thanks guys. What are your thoughts on a cherub angel. Yay or nay?
