A little help please

[zim11911]

I have a 55 gallon tank that has been up for about 2 months. Info on my tank 55 gallon 10 gallon sump. It has 2 false clowns and a skunk cleaner shrimp. A friend of mines tank got a leak and lost about half of its water volume it is a 150 gallon tank. He gave me His Yellow Tang and his Fire Goby to hold on to till his new tank is up and running. Is there any preventive measures I can take with bringing 2 new fish in to a small system.

If its just temperory you should be ok. There should not be very much aggression. Your clown might chase the new fish at the begening but should calm down. Good luck.

The clownfish may intimidate the firefish, but most likely all should be well in the short term. The yellow tang will need a source of greens such as nori.

He gave me nori macro algae and the Yellow Tang eats Pe mysis shrimp

Geesh, what a disaster for him!

He gave me nori macro algae and the Yellow Tang eats Pe mysis shrimp

Although the tang will eat mysis, they need a constant source of veggies for optimal health.
