    I have a 10 gallon reef tank. In it, I have a small sea anenome, a clown fish, & 3 corals. I don't have alot of luck with my corals, but I have begun feeding them twice a week.The parameters are good as is the lighting.

    My question is, what kind of fish could I put in my small tank &, since I now have a clown, how many more could I add ?

    I would say you are pretty darn close to your limit. you might could do a single firefish or maybe add a shrimp.

    For only 10 gallon,i'd say your maxed out,you could probaly put a small gobie in there,but in a 10 gallon,that clown probably owns the whole tank and could be aggressive with anything added.

    I had considered the yellow clown gobie. I forgot to mention that I have a shrimp & an emerald crab. ( big deal. I never see him. He only comes out @ night. lol ) I do need a few more snails.
