Starting a new tank..
What kind if fish can I add together? I have a 29g bio cube tank with live sand, 23lb of live rock, adding corals in the future.. also have a protein skimmer chemi pure elite, with purigen. I was planning on adding 1 clownfish 1 mandarin dragonate, 1 six line wrasses, and 1 more fish in the future. I will be also adding some snails, and hermit crabs. I am a newbie what do you guys think of this setup?

Too small for a mandarin (not enough pods for food) and would lose the 6 line as well as they get aggressive

^agree. The mandarin will starve and the six line will become even more aggressive in such small quarters. Go on Liveaquaria's website and do a search. IME gobies, firefish, some basslets and possum wrasses will be ok in your tank. Stay away from tangs and angels. They need more room.

I looked it up on that website, it says it needs to be in a 30g tank or bigger.. also did more research mostly everone said it cant live there becouse it neef pods to eat. That website is a little misleading

 Mandarins need a lot of rock in order to hunt hiding pods. Unless you have a 100 gallon tank or bigger a refugium is also needed.
