Hello Fishkeepers

They call me Papa, grandkids started it. This is a nice site, very informative!

I started a 50 gal saltwater reef tank about 6 months ago after having a freahwater for many years. I'm learning as I go, very different from freshwater, but enjoying it very much if I don't run out of money...lol.

I only have 4 fish as of now (2 clowns, 2 damsels) I have many live rock, and corals (don't know the names of most of them though)

What do you experts say about adding what kind of fish to my tank? I like bright colors, but want everbody to get along with each other.

Thanks for your help!

Papa...

 

Hello and welcome to the 3reef fam. If you have lids on your tank you can add some reef safe wrasses or some firefish. But you only have a 50 gallon so you are sorta limited. Maybe a small tang that maxes at 7 inches but that's about it.
