    So I have a 24g aquapod with a Picasso clown and a black photon clown and a red mandarin. ( please I don't want to get into a debate about my baby he is fine )
    Lots of rock and all types of coral Sps lps softies clams. Lights are a mixture of mh and led 150mh 14k and 9rb 3watt Cree from rapid led. Filtration is all natrurallll. Ruhr in back with Cheato rock mangroves lots of filter floss witch has become a pod factory lol. Lots of flow. Return is maxijet 1200 and in tank I have two nano korilas 240s and a marine land 550. I have a glass top with little room to jump. So I have a nice set up and I know I could handle another fish. So what should I get? I don't want something that going to be on the hunt for pods. Something that will happily eat rods food and reefcleaners reef food. Not orange black or blue. Not a chromie or damsels. What do u guys think?

    It is a dry heat, yeah right !
    Do you have a fish that swims or perches?

    Do you not like Royal Grammas or Fire fish?

    Midas Blenny?
    Barnacle Blenny?
    Chalk Bass?

    i recently got a Smith's Blenny, awesome fish that is always active in the water column.tends to pick at the rock a lot though, so may compete with your mandarin...would definitely recommend a Midas Blenny, one of my favorites which was mentioned, as well as a Royal Gramma.HTH
