    Hello. I like to know what kind of fish are good for a nano 12 gal, I know about bioload, now I oly have a percula , some shrooms, yumas, zoos, and a xenia, so how many small fish can I add to my tank. Are gobies a good option?
    Thank you for your replies

    catalina goby is not so good for reef tanks, it needs a temp of 68-75, thats too cold for most reef tanks, but anything else there is fine :) maybe not the clown gobies, since they like branching corals...:)

    How about a blue neon goby? They stay small, are good cleaner fish, and the color will contrast amazingly with an orange perc!

    Thanks nuhtty I've been checking on neon gobies I like theiir slim bodies and color, and like you said it will dlo a nice contrast w/ clown.
    I just don's see them in lfs and I'm afraid to get them on the net, just never tried I guess. :)
