well i assume that you are cycling it? just thought i would go ahead and ask

 

Is yours a 24 gallon or 19? The one linked to is a 19gal. Well, a pair of clown fish is a good start. There are some really cool damsel fish too that would be ok in that size tank as well as some gobies such as a yellow watchman goby.
As scuba said, it sounds like you are cycling now. Do you have any experience with saltwater or have you done your research? You should be testing the water to ensure your cycle is done. When that is over, you can start adding livestock. start slowly. Also keep in mind that with that size tank, over stocking can become an issue so take it slow. Good luck and hope this helps

 

hey guys yeah im cycling it, and ive done my research dont worry, i converted my 100gal tropical into marine a few months ago and everything is going great upto now apart from some unwanted crabs, this tank is the 24gal one, just wanted something to put a creature with abit more personality thats fun to watch

any one

 

yea, clownfish are fun. I like pearly jawfish, they tend to have alot of personality and have a peaceful demeanor (will occasionally spit rocks at fish that get too close to their burrow). I've heard its very fun to watch if you get more than one. Careful though, they tend to be jumpers when spooked, which seems to happen quite easily

I also really enjoy my skunk cleaner shrimp, hes very active and sometimes comical when hes trying to clean the other fish.

 

ive thought about jawfish, i saw a cute one in the LFS bluedot jawfish i think? pricey thought..

 

yeah blue dot jawfish is one of my fav fish in other people's tanks, I wont pay that much for one lol

 

lol i agree with you there quite pricey rare aswell i hear?

 

do you live near the ocean? i'm having a blast collecting local stuff
