![]() with the unfortunate departure of my sixline wrasse, i am now considering what to add as my other fish. right now i have an occellaris, royal gramma, and small twinspot blenny. the goby is so tiny that i dont think he adds much bioload. and while he is hilarious when i am up close to the tank, you dont notice it when viewing from a distance.
that is what i loved about the sixline. constant movement and brilliant colouration! now im trying to decide what fish to go for next. i COULD go for another sixline. but ive been there and done that, and want something new. i was thinking of going for a bottom "hangin out-er" goby...but im just not sure. what other fish could you all recommend to me? i dont want something overly hard to keep or super expensive. but one that gives a good mix of colouration and activity. im in the process of setting up a 50 gallon so i can always switch it over if it gets too large for the "nano". thanks canreef!

![]() I also love my sixline, I just got a filamented flasher wrasse, very colorful and lots of movement. If you loved your sixline, you will also like this fish, IMO

![]() What about a Jawfish? They're cool. They can be jumpers as well though.

![]() Another cool fish is a Longnose Hawkfish. I have one, very cool. But if you have small invertibrates, they will most likely get eaten by him. My shrimp our quick large now, he doesn't bother anything.

![]() Yes. I have a green clown goby and while he's very cute, he is always hiding and perching in my colt or carnation tree coral. Kinda funny to watch at feeding time when he swims out from where he's perching like a bolt of lighting to quickly snap up some mysis, but other then that, he's pretty boring.
