    Hello so in my tank right now I have a yellow chromis 2 bangaiis and a baby clown I added them in that order and I want to figure out what the best order would be to add the next three:)
    So I want to add a coral beauty, a lawnmower blenny, and a royal gramma, and also now that I think about it a cleaner shrimp(I don't know if it matters when I put him)

    Also does anyone know some other nice looking fish about the size of a coral beauty that I could mix with the cb in a 55 gal?

    Thank you

    It is a dry heat, yeah right !
    Royal Gramma should go next, then blenny than angel. With the blenny and angel is really does not matter which goes first.

    That gives you 7 fish in a 55 gallon. I would stop there and look at nice inverts to add, I think you have reached or come close to your max.

    A lone clown usually ends up with another clown so I would include or think about that.

    yes, I agree about the clown especially since you stated yours is a "baby", now would be a good time to add another small clown and perhaps they could end up as a mated pair. I might add the 2nd clown after everything else.....
