Hello Everyone......I was wondering besides the common reef chromis and Anthias what other fish would bring some nice movement and color into my reef?

Thanks
 
Yeah I have a yellow watchman goby that likes to chase my tang......But I am looking for a 3-5 fish school to swim all around. I have a small school of chromis and it is awesmoe watching them swim all around together
 
jsut keep in mind, the chromis will eventually whittle down to 1 :)

I started with 8 a couple years ago, now I have 1 :p
 
I do not have a cover.

Maybe I will just stick with the lyretail anthias. Although I have been told tilefish hang together ........
 
Also try some of the Cardinals. I had Red Spotted Cardinals. They are tiny and they stay in tight schools. Unfortuntely, they can be tricky to keep but I love mine. I started with 3 and one disappeard. I have no idea where he went, but he packed his things and left. The other died because he wasn't eating. They are notorious for that.

The one I have left is great. He eats and he has done well for the last 2 months. I can't seem to find anyone online who has kept them longer than 6 months, but I am intent on making this work. I have an LFS keeping an eye out for 4 more to add to my tank. I love these little guys.
