I've been going back and forth between a few different species and finally put a Limbaughi Damselfish and a Gold Assessor Basslet on order. I have no experience with Damsels or Bass but these 2 particular subspecies are suppose to be "community" friendly. Wish us all luck!

Some good choices there, not of the normal tank found breeds. Should like those. And as long as you got only one Damsel, you will be ok with the peaceful group.

So the Limbaughi Chromis is doing great, but he's much bossier than I expected. He has made great friends with my Coral Beauty and they swim together all over the tank. He's not particularily nice to my fire gobies however. The Gold Assessor Basslet was killed by a Magenta Dottyback after just one day...I was so p|ssed. Dotty has been living in the refugium since shortly thereafter. I haven't decided if I'll give her a chance in the display...she is very pretty but also very mean.

Yesterday I got really crazy and came home with a plump and perky Carribean Rock Flower Anemone and Feather Duster. These are both a first for me and my fingers are crossed. I acclimated them for many hours. They've been in the quarantine tank for about 10 hours and appear to look the same as they did prior to purchase...still plump and perky. I'm nervous for them though...I hope they do okay.
