    I’ve been looking at small fish as I have a 130 L tank with LR.
    So far its early days but the goal is to have the fish below.

    Javanese Damsel black blue stripe
    Clown
    Gobby
    Flame angel – really like this one

    And if it will fit comfortably - The Pennant coralfish (poor man idol).

    Currently I have 1 hermit crab, 1 boxer shrimp and about 1 thousand damned Bristleworms! lol.

    So question – has anyone had any issues with the compatibility of these or any suggestions, will this be too much for the tank and will the shrimp go for any of my fish?.

    Don't know on the shrimp, but you should be OK with the selection although the goby could get picked on depending on the species by the rest of the fish. I think the tank is too small for the Pennant Coralfish.

    Yes pennant fish should have at least 380L(approx. 100 US gallons). The rest looks alright. The damsel will get aggressive but those other fish are pretty tough so they should be alright.
