I would just like to say to use caution with adding a dottyback probally not the best option they're really agressive when they get larger and I saw that you had a goby. Pseudochromis are bastard fish mine killed my orange sand sifter so for punishment I stripped my reef to catch this freak and threw him in the fowler literally. Wrasses are cool but fairly expensive and jump so not too good also I heard that they sometimes turn on corals when they get larger dont know what species but read the thread on canreef a while back too bad your clowns are so mean otherwise I would put a few neon gobies in they're so cute and actually clean ich or other parisites off fish also love it when they're chillin on corals and in holes. As for bioload on these fish near to none Cheers Chris.

I know they're very common, but I like my Green Chromis (Chromii?) Anyway...they're kind of dumb and cute. Great personality, swim all over, very active. They get along very well with my Maroon Clown.

Yeah I pretty much only recommend Psuedochromis fridmani, they're smaller and least aggressive of the dottybacks. The others are all quite mean. I've always heard fridmani's are not as bad as the others, though.

I have a green clown goby 1/2" that stays near the bottom of the tank and hides under rock 95% of the time. He is so small that my clowns don't bother him at all, I guess they feel he's not worth their time. I kind of need a bastard fish any other type of fish my clowns will eat. Before we got them they attacked a firefish and they ganged up on 3 three stripped damsels they killed one and almost the other 2 so we ended up taking them home before they could hurt anyone else. I need a fish that will be able to hold their own against my clowns. That being said if we do get another fish for that tank and he starts getting picked on too much we will find a different home for him.

IME Dottybacks are inch for inch the most belligerent fish I have ever owned. I have had 2 royal dotty's, and while they do have character and you have to admire that spunk, they can be just downright mean. I have an SOB yellow tang that likes to think he is boss of the tank but even he will back away from the dotty. Between the SOB and the "short guy on sterioids" additional fish for this tank are not an option.
If you think your clowns are a match and you don't plan on adding more fish down the road then by all means get a dotty. They are beautiful fish if you can put up with their personalities.
