I currently have a 210gal with an Orange Shoulder, Naso, Black Longnose, and 4 percs. I had a Niger, a Pineapple (LFS's name for it, never figured out what it was), and a rectangle before this tank. Well the wife and I went to Hawaii and went diving and saw all the triggers and really missed them. So I was thinking of adding a Niger to the tank. SO my concern is, is that going to be to much fish because I would like to add a couple of gobies also. The wife wants a schooling fish and all the ones she wants are going to get to big so the LFS has 2 yellow watchman gobies paired in a tank and she said she could live with that.

So, is a niger and 2 gobies to much fish for my tank? (The niger is only 2" right now a lot smaller than the other fish, except one perc) Also, what are some good gobies (colorful) that will actually clean the sand? I know about the Lawnmower blennies, dragon goby, etc... but those are pretty much black and white.

Sorry so long. Wanted to make sure I got everything out.

TIA
