Fish co-habitation

[sarahorca]

Hi,

I finally decided to make a big move with my 2 tanks to pool both in one (150 g) but I have some questions about some species co-habitation... What about:
1) Gramma linkii and blue assessor basslet
2) Tailspot blenny and starry blenny
3) Pygmy angel and coral beauty
4) 2 pairs of clowns
5) engineer goby and yellow watchman goby (with its pistol shrimp)

How will they do together? Is it possible to mix them or not?!

Thanks a lot for your answers...

Anybody have already "try" one of these matches?! :worried:

I've mixed dwarf angels in my 180 before. I had a bicolor, a coral beauty, and a cherub. I think it worked since they were all 3 a different body shape.

If I were a gambling man, and I usually am, I'd say 3, 4, and 5 will all be fine in a 150. I'm not sure on 1 and 2 as I've never kept any of those.

Thanks for your answer!

I think like you for 3, 4, and 5. With what I'v heard #1 isn't a really good idea... and for #2, some people said "why not" but for the others the starry will kill the tailspot!

Well not sure if I really want to see that!

I personally wouldn't put 2 pairs of clowns in the same tank. It may work out for a while but once they start to mature and reproduce, all hell is going to break loose.

I knew that in a smaller tank but I thought it would be ok in 150 gal... I have four ocellaris (3 orange ones and one b&w)
