Banggai Cardinalfish question

[nightfire]

hey guys i have a 55g and have 2 mated clowns and a royal grama right now. would adding the banggai cardinal in now since he is semi aggressive mess things up for me adding more peaceful fish after him?

Should be no problem.

I wouldn't classify the BC as even close to semi-aggressive. They're pretty passive. There are only two times you routinely see aggression from them. One is towards other BC, especially if you have multiple females. The other is the female getting defensive when the male is carrying eggs.

Exactly. BUT be sure and get tank raised; they are much more likely to eat.

Absolutely. They're so easy to raise, so easy to get TR, and so much healthier, there's no reason not to.
