Fish do not get lonely. You can try a trio of chromis damsels, or possibly one of the less beligerant Psuedochromis.

Haha. It's only a measly 15G.

Looks pretty big though huh? I had it set up when I was getting my masters and since I just recently moved back to the Bay Area, I haven't had time to set up the 60 I have sitting in the garage. Well, that and the recent power shortage in California. I'm trying to "flex my power"

How do you know that fish don't get lonely? I know it's a lot harder to feed for one... That's one of the things I miss bout having a big tank. I like to see the feeding frenzy

Ok. I'm guessing that the lack of response means that either:

a. you guys really hate my tank or
b. I shouldn't add another fish.

I'm going w/ b!

Why not add a shrimp like a cleaner. Mine is a character, very fun to watch. It will probably take food from your hand.

In a 15g without a refugium or sump to add water volume you might want to be careful about adding another fish. The bioload may be to much. I think the idea from BROKER of a shrimp would be great. Maybe a nice coral banded shrimp that can have his own territory of the whole tank, they can be quite agressive towards other shrimp.

tank looks great, very impressive to have all that in a 15g. I have to agree with the coral banded shrimp, they can be more enjoyable to watch than fish.

It looks like you have a false perc/perc clown. If you really want another fish, I would suggest a clown goby, but don't expect a feeding frenzy. These are rather docile fish and probably shouldn't be with anything too agressive.

I have a pair in with my clown in a 20g.

Thanks guys for the replies. I'm guess I'm going to go w/ the coral banded shrimp. Never had one of those cause I thought they don't get along w/ reef tanks. It's always been cleaner shrimp in case of ich. Always wanted a clown goby but can't find them in the area.

Thanks for the complements on the tank. If anyone is interested in trading frags in the Bay Area, please let me know. I'm having trouble controlling the corals.
