I would give it a try.. By far one of my favorites I rescued mine from someone who had him in a 6g with a pair of clowns and an anemone.. Yes not a typo a 6 gallon

Sent from my galaxy S3 using my fingers
 
so i put him back in the QT with the mappa scribbled and duss tang. he chased the duss who is smaller than him and snapped at the scribbled which is bigger than him. totally ignores the mappa who could not care less about all three of them. i swear mappas are the best fish out there.

so, i put him in an acrylic container that is 5" by 11" and sunk it to the botom of the tank. hopefully this will get everyone used to each other. any advice on what im doing? good or bad i dont care. i just am tryin to get them all to live together.

How big is the quarantine if its small maybe they just feel too condensed.
 
wow... 3 min and he already escaped... its a 30 gal...

3 " mappa
4 " scribbled
2.5" duss
2.-3 " picasso
 
charged the duss and scribbled angel again.... should i just keep him isolated for a few monhs and try again? all three of these fish are gonna grow considerably in three months. the picassso prob wont grow at all.

Well, the Picasso is in a 10 gal now. And the other 3 are in the 30. They are Getting treated for crypt. I'm sorry about the hurricane. Hopefully, things will get back to normal quickly for u.

This isn't the display tank. It's the tank I'm treating them in.
 
At least here in CA Picasso triggers are also called huma huma triggers... not humuhumu... not sure why. Which BTW I've always found extra confusing since I believe the HI name of "humuhumu...etc" :) belongs to the rectangulus trigger, not the picasso...

They call them huma huma triggers here too in chicago. I have also heard that the hawaiin state fish is the rectangular trigger, some people probably get them confused because of how similar they are. Oh BTW any updates humaguy what happened to your setup during Sandy.
