My sixline is no longer a model citizen so I have made a fish trap out of a bottle of water (cut off the top and inverted it.) The bottle has been in the tank for two days and tomorrow I plan on putting food in it to entice the sixline in. If all goes well I would like to get a green clown goby in a little while but I have heard they nip corals. Here is what I've got, please tell me if there will be a problem:
1 percula clownfish
1 firefish
1 mandarin
-1 sixline

open brain
pocillipora
acans
favia
plate coral
palys and zoas
plating montipora
candycane
GSP
pavona maldevensis

2 red legged hermits
1 blue legged hermit
nassarius and cerith snails
and hopefully a tuxedo urchin soon....

The clown goby's are only a problem to acros (but they may choose a new coral in the absence of one) because they host in them in the wild and in tanks and if you have a pair they will lay their nest on the underside of the branches killing part of the coral but under normal conditions it should regrow and definately shouldn't kill the coral.

But to answer your question it should be fine.
