Looking for some help adding a 4th fish.

 

 

I had a 12 gallon nano cube for years with a pair of clowns recently moved to a 20 gallon long and added an orchid Dotty back and a Starki Damsel The orchid dotty back strolls around and was fine the Starki Got picked on anytime it came out by the female clown... the LFS told me that would be ok together. Clearly not....I gave the starks to a friend and it is doing well.

 

What would be an acceptable fish to add with a pair of clowns and an Orchid Dotty back in a 20l?

 

was 4 fish in a 20 long pushing it?

 

 

Thanks for the input!

The dottyback now owns your tank. It is going to be hard to find another fish that the dotty will not intimidate. In my Fusion 40, I added a scooter dragonet. She is a tough little one and has lasted a few months now in the tank. If she goes into the dotty's space the dotty will strike at her, but due to the scooter's tendency to remain against the sand and rock she doesn't often get into the dotty's water column.
