Updated 55 gal stock list. Opinions please

[Dunnman39]

I was on some other forums and looking through
Google and found some pretty interesting fish. I think I may have my list now. I currently have an ocellaris clown and a blue damsel. I am working on relocating the damsel to a new home as I am just not a fan of him. My clown I think will eventually swap out for a nice designer pair of clowns. But for now these two will remain. My stock list for future purchases are as follows

-goby/shrimp pair
-firefish
-midas blenny
-jaw fish
-red stripe hogfish

Are all these compatible with each other? The next fish I will be buying is a goby and shrimp pair. Now i have a peppermint shrimp now will that be okay with the pistol shrimp? What are some cool gobies and pistol shrimps that would be cool together?

I wouldn't get the hog fish, they'll decimate your shrimp and can be quite aggressive towards fish, I learned the hard way. Everything else looks fine.

Okay thank you. Any suggestions on a goby/shrimp pair?

I'm a fan of the Orange-spotted shrimp goby ( Amblyeleotris guttata ) with a tiger pistol. It's all a matter of preference for what you want.

Agreed on skipping the hogfish.

I like aurora and wheeleri gobies for watchmen.
