I've bought them seperate because of the same thing was at jl today and picked up another pistol shrimp which makes it the forth one, usually they are not picky. IMO the orange spotted goby with a little purple in them are the easiest to pair up with the pistol. In a small tank they will easily find each other!

If you get a clown get a true perc although the false is ok as well, just make sure not to get a black or maroon as these are very agressive, get quite large and territorial as well.

Zoas are compatible with any other corals and sometimes may stay closed for awhile. There are pests like nudi's,worms and other types that bother and sometimes eat the zoa from inside out. It's a good idea to dip your zoa in fresh warm water for a few minutes before putting it in your tank regardless of the source, trust no one and it's good practise to dip any corals before introducing them into your tank technically speaking from experience. It's usually a dead give away if the zoas are spewing brown stuff and dissapearing 1 at a time that there are pests involved.

As you saw from the last time you were here the stand is built but not finished, I would like to put doors that open on them and seeing that you did a good job thought it was possible. I'm in no rush for that take a year to do it, no worries.
