What fish to add to 40 breeder

[Adam Hurley]

My system is around 80 gallons

The fish I have now are one pair of clown fish and one Royal Gramma.

I'm looking for active fish any suggestions will help.

I have four firefish gobies and they are the center of attention! they are VERY friendly and mine dont try to jump out of the tank regardless to how many people say they jump straight out. Angels are also very beautiful additions. Tangs are difficult because most of them get so big but a few of them are perfect for the tank size and the amount of room you have in your tank.

Firefish will all jump at some point. I didn't have any problems with my dartfish for many months until my scissortail (same base family as the firefish) hit an aiptasia and slammed hard into the lid on my tank. Personally I have had rotten luck with dartfish, so I am usually hesitant to recommend them. If you want color and activity you could look at a Cherubfish. They are generally reef safe although they can have some attitudes/aggression. The clownfish would likely be a match for it though. Firefish are easily bullied and may spend a fair bit of time hiding.

Look into:

Midas blenny
Blue Sapphire Damsel(Chrysiptera springeri) - I have this and goes along well with my other fish

Not sure if you are intersted at shrimps- Fire shrimps are cool addition too
