    ok first off they are a long way away. i need to get to my 30 gal 30 lbs minimum live rock capabilitys first (put that in for Packleader lol you've been a lot of help to me,thank you) ok so i was looking at a firefish and a goby. more specifically the yellow watchman goby since it only gets to around 3 inches. i also picked these so they would be fairly easy on my water parameters. any ideas, comments, or question would be nice.

    Firefish are very timid. I like the purple fire fish the best, I have three myself.

    Firefish and watchman goby are great for small tanks. No special care needed for the pistol, he will scavenge his dinners, don't even need trace elements, just good water quality in general. Just make sure you have a top on the tank, both fish are known jumpers.
