[MadReefer13]

Yikes a star fish... The can be trick and don't usually last because they stsrve

[MadReefer13]

Dude a fish not a real star fish like star of the tank G

[magikarp]

I'd get a clown. Probably not a popular option on this forum because they are so common. But they are common for a reason, they are very good fish. They are attractive, active and easy to care for

Small goby would do well.

[MadReefer13]

Tank has no sand bed don't think goby would like that and I've had clowns the whole first two years before my crash looking to do one different kinda fish

[Tamberav]

Designer/unique clownfish

Pygmy Wrasse

Dottyback

Basslet

 

All of those tend to bring a lot of bright color.

This. Clowns are nice because they are out in the open. Dartfish are nice, you can get red ones, purple/gold ones. Geometric hawkfish is a cool fish.

Considering it will be a single fish, Bi Colour Dottyback would be good. They are crazy smart, very colourful and pretty active

 

But don't even think about adding a second fish. It wouldn't last long.

 

 

edit: There are Gobies that don't need a sandbed. Yellow Clown Gobies are fantastic. But won't provide much activity for a tank if kept alone. Maybe firefish + clown goby would be good for a 10 gal

I had a yellow clown gobie in my tank before it crashed it was always under the sand tho the sand I sent needed an I was looking at a few kinds of dottybacks there pretty sick may end up one of them

Are you sure by Yellow Clown Goby you mean this

 

 

 

because they don't burrow or use the sand bed. At all. Ever. They perch on corals and rockwork.

Nope looked it up I was wrongs it was a yellow watchman

These, I especially love skunk clowns

[cobracop]

never had any luck with 10 gals

JMO a damsel and a goby or two, after owning a blue damsel I love them. Extremely hardy, most are cheap, pretty, and relatively active. A smaller species would do fine in a 10 IMO, plus it'd likely ignore any goby or similar rock/sand dweller, especially if added after.

+1 to the damsel or clown. I miss my yellow tail damsel very colorful fish, very active and fun to watch. I took down the tank and didn't eat put him with my two clowns in the 11.4. Other wise I would still have him. Clown are also great fish to have.

[dpoltsdsu]

I think any of the following will provide good color and will be active

 

Bicolor Dottyback

Purple Dottyback

Yellowtail Damsel

Pygmy Wrasse

Any firefish, (if you want to get fancy then you can try a Helfrichi).
