Robb in Austin Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 Looking for ideas on what to put into the 20g long. We want something 'different'. My initial thought was an angler but I think only having 1 fish would be too boring. Next thought was 3-5 small fish; tailspot, clown goby, maybe a shrimp/goby combo, maybe some cardinals. I'm probably not going to run a skimmer (can't find an in tank one either works with my light setup, ie light limits vertical height, or the HOB ones are too big) so I can't stock too heavily. Gimme some ideas y'all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+o0zarkawater Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 Baby Naso tang would be awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timfish Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 I would suggest a trio of Blackcap basslets. They're very interactive with each other, like to swim on their side and upside down and are very brightly colored as well as very uncommon. Add a Pennant Hawkfish and a single Yellow Tail Damsel.

+o0zarkawater Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 Wish those basslets weren't so expensive. For a man of your caliber?! I vote pistol/goby combo. Or walking batfish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gonzo59 Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 I really like blue neon gobies. They can be found tank bred and are very active throughout the water column; stay very small and eat parasites. I got one for my 14 gallon and love it. I will have one in every community tank I build. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robb in Austin Posted March 3, 2014 Author Share Posted March 3, 2014 Well, in a fit of spontaneity, I ordered from Live Aquaria yesterday. Grabbed 2 pajama cardinals, a tailspot blenny (all of which I would love to have in the 75 but it's too late to add them at this point) and a high fin red banded goby ( http://www.liveaquaria.com/product/prod_display.cfm?c=15+31+181&pcatid=181) and a red banded pistol shrimp (http://www.liveaquaria.com/product/prod_display.cfm?c=497+525+704&pcatid=704). Hopefully, all will be well. I'd like to add a green clown goby as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
