    too original IMO, thats how everyone starts off. start off with a pair of cardinals then later on add like a goby pistosl pair.

    I'll probably leave it at three for a while. Maybe a YWG in a month or two. :D

    That's what I'd do! clownfish are super fun and easy! plus you can feed them frm your hand! I like the addition of the either yellow prawn goby or orange stripe watchmen goby with a cool piston shrimp idea too! Look into some of the cool black clowns! I love my orange and black pair!

    IMO scratch the chromis and get a cardinalfish, chromis are not single nano fish. A shrimp goby is another great choice.

    Hmmmm. I'm on a bit of a budget.... Would it be ok to add two clowns right after the cycle?
