Yellow Clown Goby, he was in my 20gal. it is now in my 55gal. It loves to sit on my Candy Cane coral all day, and wait to be fed ! Definitely my favorite nano fish!

I have a BC29 and my favorite fish is my possum wrasse. He is really curious and fun to watch when he is hunting for pods on the rocks and sand.

12g nano cube with a pearly jawfish because of his eyes and mouth. 29g AGA with a firefish because of his great personality.

What fish do you have in with your Possum Wrasse and how are they getting along?

Truth be told, my clowns are still quite juvenile (the female barely topping an inch long)...other truth be told, they're also not technically in my 12g yet...they'll be in QT till sunday...

I hope for my clowns to spawn, and I do know that it's not entirely uncommon for A. Ocellaris or A. Percula to spawn in aquariums as small as 10g. I'm also hoping that they will host my Xenia.

I'm really happy with my pair of pink skunk clowns. It was originally going to be a purple firefish, but he was DOA.

I would have to say percula or ocellaris. My percula is in a 8g nano and he is always so active. You can always go in and watch him swim around. Never a dull moment i guess.
