Royal Grammas actually do cost around $200-$300 here in Australia because they are imported 😂

Springer’s Damsels are more peaceful than yellow tails. Yellow tails can be quite aggressive

An extremely important thing to note because I just experienced this. When adding new fish make sure to quarantine and when introducing to a new tank mates be sure to put in a fish box to lesson aggression.

I have a 35 gallon tank with one very aggressive Tomato clownfish that’s all alone now because she basically and ever so slowly killed my Diamond Watchman Goby and three shrimp, a larger tank would of alleviated that aggression.<br>As a general rule…….avoid Tomato Clowns!

I'm thinking of an 80 gallon tank with a 46 gallon (Have an old tank) sump/refugium.<br><br>Your list covers many of my desired fish; O clown (2), pseudocromis, yellow watchman with pistol shrimp, 5-6 green chromis, a firefin, 1-3 PJ cards, a blenny of some sort. If the blue/yellow damsel won't fight, possibly one. Zoanthids and other soft corals, feather-duster worms. A few cleaner shrimp, hermits, brittle stars, snails, and a Pom Pom crab. <br><br>The 2-chamber refugium will have a mass of macro algae in one to (Hopefully) propagate lots of Copepods (Guess where I'm going with this...) in hopes of adding a mandarin goby to the main tank maybe a year in. I want to be absolutely sure that it will have enough to eat, though.<br>Maybe an Emerald crab or two to keep the algae in check).<br><br>Other sump chamber is for my fave animal: A mantis shrimp. I once had 12 separate mantis tanks in my bedroom... One living in the sump works, I think. Thoughts?
