I have a 29gal reef tank with a mixture of SPS and LPS right now the only fish I have are two ocellaris clown fish. i want to get new fish but truthfully i know next to nothing about salt water fish. I am looking for fish with a bit of a wow factor that are fun to watch. Any ideas?
I really like this guy does anyone know anything about them?

you dont want him, its an angler they will eat all the other fish. You cant go wrong with a tailspot blenny for a small reef and some chromis for color.

peaceful doesnt mean it wont eat fish.

The Striated Angler Fish feeds by ambush, lying in wait for an unsuspecting fish or crustacean to go by and then lunging forward, grabbing and swallowing the victim whole. The Striated Angler Fish has been known to devour fish nearly equal to its own size.

With the fish you have pictured last I would say not in a 29g even if it is an more mature reef. They can really decimate a pod population and then they have no food as most are very hard toget to eat frozen. I had one for 6 years and trained it to eat frozen foods in the first 6 months but I worked at it everyday.....Once they get on to frozen foods they are just like any other fish. They will pick at the rocks eating and come around for feeding time.....What kind of fish are you looking for to at to your tank? Just something with color? or something unique?
