Can Dartfish Co-exsist?

[Thunderstruck]

I have heard mixed thoughts about dartfish and tilefish co exsisting in the same tank. I am setting up a 180 reef tank and would like to put in a purple dartfish, red dartfish, bluejaw tilefish, and a purple tilefish. I will have 200-300 pounds of live rock in the tank, so there will be pleanty of hiding spots. Just wondering what everyone thinks? I would like to have a peaceful set up and would love to have these fish in their if I could...

You have the makings of a disaster. I would pick one species and stick with it. Hoplolatilus are difficult to feed to begin with--introducing a competitor is not wise in this case. Plus they can inflict nasty wounds if they feel threatened by the more aggressive dartfish (or by you, for that matter). They are also not really compatible with each other, IME. Dartfish are much the same way, especially the purple firefish. A few N. magnifica in a 180 may work, but just a few individuals (2-3). Any more, and you may have issues, especially as the fish get older and larger.
