He's obviously is going to get a fish. Id say a small ocellaris clownfish, or a clown goby, something that doesnt get over a couple inches
HN1 said:How is that obvious? Regardless, I posted my opinion which I will stand by. A clown goby MAY work, an occie clown has no business ever seeing a 4G tank and is frankly a lousy recommendation, IMO.
Original Reef said:Everyone has a different experience with fish. I have had other nanos with fish and the aquarium was in great balance. Fish were healthy too.
What clean up crew should I have? I have 4 hermits right now.
Schism said:I have to agree will 4g being to small for most fish especially a clown. I think your underestimating how small 4g is and most reef fish requirements. The bioload alone will not be viable for a reef tank.
Also would not out turbos and emeralds in a 4g, they will starve themselves out fairly quickly.

Original Reef said:So far it's doing really well. The corals are fully open and look good!
But we will see if they grow
DWilliams said:Keep us updated, I have this same tank sitting in my fish closet unused might set it up for some zoas if the light is capable to grow them.
DWilliams said:Looks good, any signs of growth?
Original Reef said:From what I can tell so far, yes there's some growth!
But I'll keep you posted in a few weeks when I can really see
