I would love a randalls goby and pistol shrimp pair, but I am still unsure if that's what I truly want or if there is something better suited for my tank.

 

Current param

ni-0

nitrate-0

 

 

1 green star polyp frag I will be getting some zoas and mushrooms soon.

Personally, I would go with the goby. I don't think there is enough swimming room in a tank that size for anything else on your list. Again, just my opinion.

 

Yeah I was trying to use that to get a good idea of what I would like and I do enjoy the look of a paired goby/pistol

The goby/shrimp pair is best, but sometimes the pistol can be very secretive, especially in noisy environments. If you have a quiet-ish house, it will prob. be fine.

ocellaris clown- IMO not enough swimming room

Randalls goby with pistol shrimp- maybe a smaller goby, randalls get up to 4-5 inches

Green chromis- same as clownfish

Royal Gramma- same as clownfish
