which of these fish to get first to last?!?!?

[belatube]

HI guys, been doing reading on the fish i want. as far as behavior they pretty much have the same aggressive level. there are the fish i want in my 29 gallon.

2 of either Occelaris or true percula clowns. (which one u like better? and whats nemo? hehehe)

1 fire fish

1 blenny (is it okay to have this with a fire fish?)

green chromis (would be oka with these fish above in my 29 g?)

royal gramma. (can i add 2 of them ?)

cleaner shrimp

banded shrimp (seen a pics of these 2 fish same tank... is this okay or would this kill the cleaner shrimp?)

from my understanding. assuming all these fish i could add.. this is the order they will be introduced to the tank. all in one week. haha JP!! ( 6 months)

I know it might be too much.. so which would you take out? or replace one for another?

1. gobie fire fish
2. royal gramm
3. clowns
4. shrimps
5.blenny
6.chromis

i believe the true percula clown fish is nemo, but you may want the ocellaris clowns as i think there not as aggressive as the percula's.

1 fire fish - ok

(1 blenny, is it okay to have this with a fire fish?) - should be, i would maybe get a scooter blenny ( after your tank matures), or another small species.

(green chromis, would be oka with these fish above in my 29 g?) - i think it will be ok.

(royal gramma, can i add 2 of them ?) - go ahead add two!

(cleaner shrimp) - great!, it will be fine.

[quote][banded shrimp (seen a pics of these 2 fish same tank... is this okay or would this kill the cleaner shrimp?)/QUOTE] i would not get a banded and mix it with the docile fish and i do believe it will kill the cleaner shrimp. i just wouldn't take the chance.

if i had to take one off your list it would be the fire fish,( I've never kept them) but reason being is i do not know how well it would do with the clowns ( aren't they very docile?). i think the fire fish do better in groups or pairs, so if i had to change one for another, i would drop the two chromis and trade it out for another fire fish. or if you really want the chromis id trade out the blenny. good luck and let us know what you decide...

What kind of blenny are you looking at? I agree I'd make that a small one. If you choose a scooter or the like, it will have to be last as they require a mature tank and an established pod poulation. I also would skip the coral banded shrimp. In a tnak that size, it would surely try to eat your cleaner, and may try to go after your fish too. Royal grammas can be agressive towards members of it's own species, so I'd stick with one here. I don't think the order is going to matter much. the clowns are the only ones I know are teritorial. I think this will put you pretty close to being fully stocked, especialy once you factor in a good cleanup crew.

I like firefish and have a Nemateleotris magnificain my bigger tank. I think they are great nano fish and would take it over a chromis. I may get the purple firefish Nemateleotris decora for my nano.
