What do you like for fish? I like gobies and similar species. The main reason I'm setting up a saltwater tank is so I can keep goby, firefish, blenny, or dragonet species and for all the little critters and inverts I can find on the liverock or add to my tank. In freshwater if my tank had all those little "bugs" running around on the front glass I'd be considering tearing it down completely but in saltwater I get to be happy they are there. It's hard for anyone to recommend fish if you don't have an idea what you want. For starters try looking through [link=http://liveaquaria.com/]http://liveaquaria.com/" style="COLOR: #C000C0[/link].

The tomato died so now i dont think i am going to return the black back (i called it saddle back earlier but i recently found out i was wrong)

anybody got some fish and or anemone suggestions that will get along with these fish and will not be aggresive and will not nibble on coral or anemones

Two of them. Though it is possible that you could have a happy fish tank down the line with two different species of clownfish, I wouldn't bet on it.

That's entirely up to you. I prefer saddleback clownfish (Amphiprion polymnus) out of those three species, but the fish aren't mine, they're yours. At this stage any one of these would be okay in your tank.

They should. Most stores don't have a guarantee period on their saltwater fish, but you will probably be able to work something out.

That would make things worse. Three pairs of clownfish sharing a fifty-five gallon? You would likely end up with some dead fish. Clowns are related to damselfish, and like damsels can be pretty territorial. They especially seem to torment each other the most, and a pair of clownfish can be brutal.
