Frag tank fish

[Miah2bzy]

I'm finishing up a 30b frag tank and wanted to see opinions on fish to put in it to keep corals healthy.
I'm planning on bare bottom for now but am open to sand.
I've seen everything from yellow tangs, wrasses, blennys, and springer damsels. I'm keeping mostly lps and zoas as backups for my main tank once I get it setup.
Thanks!

last time I kept a frag tank the pods were multiplying like mad and even all my coral pics showed a ton of pods. Maybe a mandarin or something that eats pods? I mean not right away of course but if you're doing chaeto then your pods might be overwhelming. At least for me they were kind of annoying

Asked this question on r2r and general consensus was small wrasse such as 6 line or 2 then saltwater Molly or blenny

+1 wrasse for potential pest, and blenny/molly for algae cleanup. Makes a balanced set for a tank that size i think

Ive got a yellow tang (takes care of the algae) and a six line wrasee (take care of potential pests). This combo works like a charm in my frag tank.

Besides the lawn mower is there a different Blenny/molly?

I loved my starry until he got comfortable and was laying on coral all day. Very personable like an underwater Homer Simpson
