    you thought this was going to be puffer chick didnt ya??? lol

    but in serious matter ( lol) i was wondering if it would be safe to add another fish or not..

    i have a 29G reef tank, with two false percula clownfish, a diamond goby and a firefish.

    ive been thinking real hard to whether i should add another fish or not since everything is running really smoothly on my tank..

    would you consider adding another fish? or just leave it like that....

    if you are pro another fish.. which fish would be a nice addition?

    I dont see the harm in adding 1 more small fish, I've seen 29g tanks more overstocked then that without issues.

    it all depends on your filtration... if you have enough LR and good mechanical filtration then you should be good to go

    A small wrasse is a good Idea. PinkStreaked Maybe? They only get a few inches big If I do recall.

    you can prolly get away with most of the reef safe wrasses and a few of the non-safe wrasses on live aquaria
