Hello everyone again. It has been a long time without a post, and I have been going through a great hair algae bloom that is finally under control.

Anyways, right now, I have the following fish list for a 29 biocube.

-2 True Percula Clownfish
-1 Longnose Hawkfish
-1 Sailfin Blenny
-1 Coral Beauty Angelfish (Who doesn't even know what a coral is)

I also have 1 cleaner shrimp that is best friends with the hawkfish?

My dad came up to me today and said that he would like another swimmer in the tank, or a more colourful fish (Canadian, don't mind the spelling). After a weekend trip to the LFS, I have a few fish that caught my eye, but I am not sure at all if I should even attempt to keep.

Right now my current levels are

Ammonia-0
Nitrite-0
Nitrate- Undetectable
Alkalinity- 300dkh
Phosphorus- Undetectable
PH-8.4

Everything else is within acceptable range.

The fish that would be on my mind would be
-8 line wrasse
-6 line wrasse
- Carpenter Flasher Wrasse

I also found a group of mandarins that were fat, healthy, and eating frozen foods in the LFS back room, but I am not sure if their eating habits would change if I introduce them to a new tank.

Anyways, I told my dad that everyone on RC would have a final Veto on whether or not a fish goes in.

Does anyone have any ideas?

If it were my tank I would pick a peaceful pseudochromis or the six line. The wrasse might get bullied in that tank by the angel or the hawkfish depending on the behavior of the fish.

Does anyone have an opinion?

Oh yeah, all of the fish in the tank now have shown no signs of aggression or any type of dominance/ beating-up-others (don't know the right word).

The sixline would be a great idea. IMO I would not try a Mandarin.

a firefish would be cool
