What Fish Should I Get?
Hello, I've had my established 90g reef tank for about 2 months now that I got for a present from my boyfriend which he got through a friend. I'm still totally new to everything but I've got the basics down. Right now, I have 2 false percula clownfish, one spot foxface, LTA's, snails and hermits. I would like to get another fish but I'm very hesitant because my clownfish and foxface get along so well together, they're all buddies. Anyways, having a 90g tank it would be nice to get another fish or two. Anyone have any advice on what fish would probably get along with my other fish that I can introduce to the tank?

We have a royal gramma in my 65 and he's a favorite of the family. Mellow (but will hold his own), swims freely in the tank, is really curious (anything new in the tank gets thoroughly checked out, often by him swimming head down and side-eyeing it while hovering). Not much phases him, if he gets startled he's usually right back out.
Our starry blenny is not the prettiest fish most of the time, but if there's food around she goes into full on starry mode, black with bright white and blue spots. And it's hard to resist that face and those puffy eyebrows. She's a pig though and I have to feed her before I can feed anything else; and if she's full, she'll still keep trying to fit more food in. We named her Gertrude, lol.

Maybe something for down on the sand? If the clowns and the fox face have the middle water well sorted then a new guy down on the bottom might not make them feel as territorial. Yellow watchman gobies are cute like a blenny

You could do a shrimp and goby pair.
