    Pearly Jawfish and a Blood Shrimp.

    I had to put my Orange Spotted Filefish in a 10 gallon for two days while I re-did my sump. The fish did OK, but for long-term health of the fish, not cool. I can't see having three 2" fish in a 10 gallon.

    I had a lemon goby in my 12 gal. He was so cool, he kinda perched everywhere, just haging out, but they only live for like a year. So sad.:( But he was quite a character.:)

    I think firefish are ok in a 10 gallon. Maybe pick up one of those and one goby. That way you have fish in middle and on bottom. I am pretty sure basslets need more than 10 gallons.

    Lawnmower Blenny or Sailfin Blenny (same thing) are really cool! Had one in my 14 gal. Coral banded shrimps are cool and can't go wrong with a clown!

    I like the Springeri Pseudochromis. very beautiful and stays relatively small. Also a very good reef fish. Maybe one of those and a watchman/pistol shrimp pair? or a couple Pom Pom crabs to go with the pseudochromis ? Anyway gl on whatever you choose.
