candy stripe hogfish

[roni]

anyone have any experience with the candy stripe hogwish (Bodianus bimaculatus) in a reef environment? In particular, any problems with ornamental shrimp or hermits?

I had one for about a year, until it died due to a power outage. I had no problems with it bothering cleaner shrimp, coral banded shrimp, snails or hermits.

It ate all foods that I feed and was a nice active swimmer, going in and out of the rocks. Really nice fish.

Never had an issue with mine....except his need to carpetsurf on occasion Make sure to cover your tank!
