1. 3 stripe damsels EXTREMELY agressive and will cause havoc in the tank.
2. blue hippo tang or blue line tang (dory)
3. yellow tang
Only 1 tang per tank to avoid fights. Tangs are highly territorial. Pick either the yellow or hippo (hippos are not as hardy as yellows though)
4. 2 clown fish (nemo and his dad) No problem. Peaceful and can work in a 20 or 55 gallon tank.
5. orange linkia star Not a good idea. Linkias (the blues as well) These are not beginner stars.
6. cleaner shrimp These are OK. Just make sure the tank is completely stable before adding them.

not on nemo but mommy likes ..
7. royal gramma or blackcap basslet These are fine. Peaceful and hardy.
8. mandarin dragonet-spotted NO NO NO. These will starve to death. They feed solely on copepods.
9. red spotted sandperch New one on me. Is this a spotted hawkfish? The hawkfish would be fine.
10. hawaiian spotted puffer Not a good choice. Will take chunks out of the other fish.

If you go with a 55 gallon, you can add the tang, the 2 clowns, the cleaner shrimp, the royal gramma and the basslet, and the hawkfish.
