I had the same combo in a 24 gal at one time. Worked not too bad. If your going to try the firefish put a top on the tank. They love to carpet surf.
In a 14 I'd only go with 2 out of the 3. My royal gramma is a real bully now. He was by himself for a while and when I introduced a new goby he beat it up to the point the goby had to be moved. I don't think they are all this aggressive though.

2 at the most. I would not do the three. imo, introduce the firefish first, then the clown. royal gramma might get too aggressive in small quarters. not all of them are aggressive, but it seems that most are or become so.

Ya, 14 gallons is too small for three of those fish. Orchid Dottybacks are similar to Royal Grammas, and tend to be much less aggressive. That's another thought. Or a bigger tank.

Haha I wish I could have a bigger tank! Unfortunately that wont be an option for a long time. I really like orchid dottybacks too but they are too aggresive. It's just something about that purple/yellow that gets me.

Two at the most. I have an Orchid Dotty and Perc in my 12 gallon. The tank is definitely fish full. I would go with the Orchid Dotty over the RG, awesome fish with great personality. See my sig for a pic of Inara our P. fridmani aka Orchid Dotty.
