Hello all, i have a 3 feet tank which is currently maxed out in terms of fish. However, i feel like adding one or two more very small brightly coloured fish to add colour, but also minimize bioload. Im thinking of something red or blue. The only strikingly coloured fish in my tank is clownfish, royal gramma and yellow wrasse. the wrasse hides in the early morning and at night, only come out like 9am till 6pm. the rest of my fish are dull. like my banggai cardinal, coral beauty and sand sifting goby. My question is, any reccomendation for very small colourful fish without increasing my bioload?

Pleaase help me think lols, as im already at my wits end.... reading on line. I was thinking maybe some shrimps. sexy shrimps =) But i scared my wrasse eat it lol. Oh, and i also have a 3" niger trigger.... will plan to relocate it soon. Am helping someone keep it as he decom his tank. I hope to keep it for as long as possible. It is very nice and friendly lol. never cause problems.... only thing is i scared grow too big.

Thanks for any help in advance! :lol:

Adding any LS be it coral, invertibrates or fishes will definite increase the Bio load. You can increase your bio media. I done it by using BIO HOME PLUS media and it seem to work for me. I am also having a 3ft tank. Not sure what is your Width and Height for your tank.

For small red fishes, you can try Flame Angel , Flame Hawk and Red Scooter (not common nowadays).

For Blue, this is the most common color. You can try bi-color angel (mix of yellow and blue, not really coral safe), blue goby (however may hide most of the time) , blue assessor (also know as blue devilfish), small blue tang (however will grow fast)...etc.

Hope this help.
