Please evaluate this fish combination


This would be for my 14g BioCube.

Clown + Firefish + small goby/blenny?

I am kind of worried about the firefish since they are prone to bullying.

Depending on the type of Clown...some (like Maroons) get pretty large and aggressive...the standard fare like Ocellaris or Percs should be fine...I don't see any trouble with the firefish other than the clown will get the food long before it settles down to the level of the gobies (firefish are actually in the goby family too)...you just have to feed in a way to make sure all three get some...IMO that would be a pretty decent load for a 14G cube, but you're talking small fish and with good husbandry that should work.

So can clarkii's
I would suggest a picasso clown or one of those mucullah's or what ever their called for $5,000 Heck get 2

I was leary of food competition when I added my pair of yellow watchman gobies...
They actually come almost to the surface when I feed...
