I've had my eye on a small goby with the name Fire in its common name. I forget the name right now. It's bright red and white, split half and half along its lateral line, with a tall, thin fin sticking out the top, about equal to the length of its body. All the ones in our LFS are very shy and dart for cover when people come near, though. Anyways, some tank have one of these gobies sharing with a clown, so may be a safe bet :)
