sykospark Posted February 17, 2007 Share Posted February 17, 2007 So I got the nifty 5.5 I won off Ebay in the office and started to set it up. Coworkers c crowd around me and are like "You can get a clownfish ! AND AN ANEMONE!!". I explain NO we can NOT get an anemone and I think the tank is a weeeee bit small for a clown. I was originally considering a pseudochromis. I then glanced at the fishy sticky in the Newcomer forum and noticed it recommended 10g + for a pseudochromis. What do you all have for vertebrates in y0 tank? Should I just get a lil goby? (I"m being forced by coworkers to get at least one fish). Link to comment
clifford513 Posted February 17, 2007 Share Posted February 17, 2007 A couple of Greenbanded Gobies (Elacatinus multifasciatum) would look great and do well in there, imo Link to comment
Fishfreak218 Posted February 17, 2007 Share Posted February 17, 2007 Clown Gobies, eviota gobies, as mentioned above green banded gobies, and any of the shrimp gobies are good.. honestly.... all the smaller gobies Link to comment
KMitch Posted February 17, 2007 Share Posted February 17, 2007 Do a search for "lgreen" and look at the fish guide that comes up. I think you can find it from "steelhealr" as well. It's the best guide I've seen for realistically keeping small fish. Link to comment

Hekim Posted February 17, 2007 Share Posted February 17, 2007 Put a cleaner shimp in there and your coworkers will forget all about the fish. They are more fun to watch, less bioload and no problem about feeding on weekends. Just my .02 worth. Link to comment
