    I'd say you could add ONE. That Blenny will need to be rehomed too though.

    It is a dry heat, yeah right !
    How long have you had the blenny?
    Sometimes it's hard to meet their nutritional needs once all the grazing algae has been eaten. If you have had the fish for awhile and it's eating alternative algae it might be fine.

    As for the Cardinals, that would be 5 fish in a small tank, that is pushing it.
    Cardinals can be passive and shy, the Clowns might be too aggressive in such a small tank.
