    I lost my Scooter Blenny:cry: back at Thanksgiving while I was away from home for a week recovering from surgery. In my tank now I have a Royal Gramma Basslet and 2 Ocellaris Clownfish. I'm having trouble picking out my next fish. It needs to be reef safe and a none jumper, and I would prefer it to be more active than the ones I have now. I would also like opinions on how many more fish I can safely have or am I maxed out now? Thanks in advance.;)

    Well, I would love to but, I'm worried that he staved out because I started this tank with baserock. He was alot fatter in my old tank. I think he was just hangin in there until my GF could only feed he pellets every other day while I was away.Idk
