Schooling fish ?

Anything other then Chromis or anthia?

 

cardinals, scissor tail gobies.

 

Bannerfish, but most are not reef safe and require a very large tank.

 

Which type of cardinals?

Anything that stays smaller like Chromis

 

heres a few:
Kaudern's cardinal - The most strikingly beautiful of all cardinal fish, these exotic creatures have narrow black stripes across silver bodies and elongated fins peppered with spots. They grow up to three inches in length and it's best to keep just one male with two or three females to keep them from fighting each other.

Spotted cardinal - With yellow faces, orange eyes and orange polka dots on the rear halves of their bodies, these dramatic little fish make quite an impression. They grow to about three and a half inches and do best when kept in shoals of four to eight.

Flame cardinal - These vivid red fish are nocturnal in nature, though when they get used to you they'll emerge as soon as the tank lights go out. They grow up to four inches in length and are best kept in mated pairs.

Black striped cardinal - With striking horizontal black and white stripes, these handsome fish grow up to five inches long. They do best in mated pairs and are often shy around larger fish, but will become more sociable as they build up confidence.

Longspine cardinal - Among the smallest cardinal fish suitable for aquariums, these peaceful little fish do well in shoals of around six. They're largely transparent but have beautiful iridescent green, blue and yellow markings.

Orange lined cardinal - Striped orange and white with distinctive black spots on their tails, these friendly fish thrive in small shoals and grow to about two and a half inches in length.

how big is your tank?

 

72 gallon, I am moving most of my fish over to the 220 that just finished cycling, so Im thinking I am only going to leave the clown pair that I have in there. I

 

cool the forst set in the list look the best to me but the fish as a whole have huge eyes that are a little creepy to my wife LOL

 

Reason for those eyes is that they are nocturnal for the most part. During the day, they will huddle in a dark corner of your tank. Only at night will they be front and center in the tank.

 

Longspine cardinals are the best way to go IMO.

 

cool i didnt know that
