Hi reefers .

So im passing month 4 in the red sea reefer 300 ,
As we stand im inhousing the following community .
- 2 x occelaris
- 2 x cleaner shrimp
- 1x Salarias ramosus
- 1x watchman goby + 1x pistolshrimp
- approx 3x sand cleaning snails ? / 2 x bumblebee snails

The goby/shrimp is the last that went inside the system .
Slowly i am looking into the next family member to add into the system .
Untill now there is not even a spark of agression in the tank and i would like to stay like that xd

I do have a bit of vermetid snail's that i would compensate by expanding the bumble bee snail's .
Also i do see some bubble algea ... maybe some kind that would graze on bubble algea ? As a fox face is too big for my system .
A wrasse is also on the list but not so sure which one to get .
I also prefer captive bred above wildcaught but that's not availeable in all species .

I did also google about keeping pseudochromis fridmani in a pair/group since they are captive bred well availeable and i do like them .

Mandarin captive bred is also on the list but that will only be suitable in a few month's .

Soo alot of guessing but not all to sure ....
What do you guys find suiteable or what is the first to mind that you can think of ?

Thanks in advance.

It depends on your future plans? Coral? Fish only? Large branching structures?

For wrasses I really like Cleaner Wrasses. Friendly free swimmers that are a fun addition.

A fork tail or a Midas blenny are fun additions.

I also would think you need more of a cuc.

I do have a mostly lps reef tank .
Scape is a bit based of smaller fish , no big crevicces but alot of smaller one's .
I do have a sand bed .
Cuc is for sure a thing i need . Since i had an briopsis outbreak thats getting cured with flux rx .
Slowly evading only at day 5 now .

im a bit scared about the cleaner wrasse and my small population of fish , is it a fact that other fish get's stressed out from the cleaner wrasse that is willing to clean the fish ?
also could i add a blenny when there is already a salarias inside ?

thanks in advance
