    Just out of curiosity, in a few months after the tank is established do you think I could add the gramma if I have a good skimmer?
    Here why I think this would be ok(keep in mind that I'm a newb, if this isn't ok the just let me know)

    1. It will be added last so aggression shouldn't be a problem
    2. It's a rock dweller so it doesn't take up much swim room
    3. Even though it's 5 fish, one is a small nano fish, one is a bottom dweller, and only two are even remotely active

    Whadya think? If not the gramma any suggestions?

    Thats a good list. I bet you could also fit a 6line wrasse in there once all the other fish have found their homes and are well accustomed to your tank setup. Also if you have plenty of LR or good filtration. I try to do weekly water changes on my tank since it's only 29g it's very important to remove detritus and replace trace elements that are not able to be replaced by supplements.

    Eehhh. Idk about aggression and swim room with the six lines.... I'll probably do this...

    1 occ. clown
    1 bangaii cardinal
    1 pink spot or YWG
    1 purple fire fish

    And then if im feeling confident after a while...

    The gramma.

    Do they need more room? LA says 30 so I guess I'm good. Are you suggesting 6 line instead of gramma?
