    In my 55gal I have:
    Lemon Peel Dwarf Angel
    Juv. Koran Angel
    Four Stripe Damsel
    Maroon Clown
    False Percula Clown
    Saddled Clown
    Saddled Puffer

    I am also thinking of getting a blenny or hawkfish. Am I overstocked already?

    I really wouldn't mix the clowns they are territorial.

    I know, I've been having problems with my maroon. My saddled and percula paired up but the maroon is going after both of them and now they are starting to swim apart because the maroon is going after the percula more than the saddled.

    the percula being the weakest and most peaceful will probably be the maroons target until it dies, then the maroon will turn it attention to the saddle

    i would think that one angel would be enough for a 55g which may be pushing it a lil but between the two the juv koran should be the one to go... jmo
