    I have a 33 gallon aquarium with a few fish in it already 2 clown fish, a fire fish and a cleaner wrasse. I want just ONE more fish, but what should I get that will be ok in a 33 gallon tank that is compatible with the fish I already have? I was thinking a dwarf angel of some kind but before i choose I would love some suggestions. Nothing that would be over $60. Thanks.

    It is a dry heat, yeah right !
    Yellow watchman goby.

    Royal Gramma.

    Cardinal.

    If you have LPS or clams or plan to, you might want to re-think a dwarf angel. It's always a risk with them.

    Royal gramma was one I was really considering as well. Cardinals I'm not interested in at all.

    I would definately recommend a Royal Gramma as they are beautiful, and mellow fish. You could also go with a firefish (Nemateleotris magnifica,Nemateleotris decora, and Nemateleotris helfrichi)
    The Helfrichi firefish is a bit over your budget, but it would still be a great option.
    There are also many gobies that you can consider.

    I already have a fire fish, I don't want another one. The yellow watchman goby I'm interested in too. My sand is black, so I think yellow would look real nice.

    My wife has a matched pair of watchmans the male is really pretty the female rarely comes out of her cave, I love them alot, The male will try to jump out ever so offen, now if you ever want cleaner shrimp once the fish gets big he will eat them until he passes out. James
