    Im thinking about starting and small tank and putting in coral and one to two fish manly a coral tank, was wondering what a good fish would be for this set up and if there is a fish out there that might tend to the coral in some way.

    coral gobys are they a hard fish to get to eat. sadly i went down that road early in my reef careing adventures and lost a yellow stripped antheis not knowing there tuff to get to eat anything.

    yea clowns for sure, maybe a wrasse of some sort if you want a fish to tend to corals, they eat all sorts of pest like nudis and what not. maybe a goby, fairly limited for that size
