Fish for a 20g (1 Viewer)

[garaymail]

What are some good fish that I can keep in a 20g nano and not out grow it? Clowns?

I will have a small blue star leopard wrasse who will eventually move to the bigger tank, but will have to stay in the 20g for a few months. Starting the 20g nano to house some of the coral I don't want to get rid of while I break down my display and upgrade to a 240g. It is done cycling and I am going to start adding coral slowly in a couple weeks

Thanks,

Stephen

I love blennies! Such a personality! A bicolor i had was my favorite! Just be careful as they're jumpers

hector's goby or rainford goby. Haven't decided which I'm getting yet.

I did see a yellow watchman/tiger shrimp pair at the store the other day. It was pretty awesome watching them. Yasha goby/shrimp pair might be better for a 20g though.

Blue reef chromis and bangai cardinal fish

Possum wrasse is a neat little fish, but very shy and need very peaceful tankmates.

I moved my watchman and pistol into a 20 long and they have been doing geat. They where in my 210 until I took it down. A spotted tail Benny would do great as well and they have awesome personalities

I'm also considering Tanaka's pygmy possom wrasse. Anyone have experience?

I have never had one but have done quite a bit of research because I want one. I have a very peaceful tank, but our lfs here don't ever seem to order them. They are probably on the difficulty of a copperband, but if the tank is peaceful they apparently do well. Since they are a bit on the sensitive side, I prefer to let the Lfs get them acclimated and eating. Apparently there are a few types and the tanaka is a bit more hardy from what I understand. If I were to put one in a 20 I'd probably house one with a goby or pajama Cardinal or something super peaceful like that.
