Fish Suggestions?

i love fairy wrasse, they swim around all day and never bother anyone. not sure if the clowns will bully them, i never had cin only oct clowns. but you need a cover fairy wrasses will jump. also dont get a 6 line wrasse they have napoleon complex. my lfs doesnt ever sell them or sohal tangs, say they are too nasty



Good tips. I'm gunna skip the wrasse because I can't easily put a top on my tank.

It's funny everyone is talking about how aggressive my clownfish and gramma are but this morning they were all hanging swimming around my tank together in the same circle. I go over to my QT tank and find my PJ cardinal bullying the crap out of the other one and the Blue-Green Chromis.

He's going back to the store tomorrow.

Give them time, you will start to see a difference as they mature or if they become a bonded pair and start breeding.
 
I recommend against the red ruby dragonet as they are pod eaters and need thousands of pods a day. Unless you have a huge sump the dragonet will likely starve
 
I have a fairy wrasse also. He kinda bullied my clowns for a little then my banggai Cardinal taught him a lesson over the span of two weeks and he doesn't bother anyone any more. In fact the clowns Cardinal and fairy wrasse kinda school around all day together

I put pods in every month regardless. I have a nice healthy population they are always on the glass and stuff. Good tip though.

Putting pods in every month is just wasting your money. Your tank either had the conditions for pods to grow or it doesn't Adding more doesn't do anything but make your wallet lighter

I don't agree. I like feeding my fish live foods. Sometimes I even feed them live muscles and clams from Whole Foods. The goal is that this fish needs live pods. If I want to buy them to be sure my pet has enough food--weather or not I'm making my wallet "lighter" is my worry not yours.

Lol your funny you don't agree. Your in here asking for help. If your so smart don't ask for help. This is the last time I will offer you advice. Your very ungrateful and don't know half as much as your think.

I asked for suggestions on which fish to put in, not what to spend money on. Don't give unsolicited advice bro.

You know what, sorry if I offended you dude. I just get ****y when people give me side advice. My bad. Anyway, I had to deal with the two fish I got + the one spawn of Satan who went back to the store.

Its ok bro all good. But It's only advice. Don't tAke it so personal ok. Take it with a grain of salt. In the end your tank is your baby abd of course you can do what you want. Pj cardinals aren't really that mean of a fish. Little chasing is ok. I had a kole tang chase a new coral beauty like crazy for a week. Coral beauty couldn't even come out and eat. Ny wife wanted me to take it out. After 2 weeks they don't even look at each other. I told her it's ok. One fish just trying to show the other who is boss. But there was no bodily harm. As long as it's just a little chasing it will be ok give it time

I already took him back. He was actually nipping at the other PJs fins and wouldn't let
Him eat. I was worried what he would do to the other fish when I took him out of QT. The fins were all ratty it was sad. As soon as I took him out the other way was happy as a lunatic and immediately left his corner. His fins already grew back too. It's been about 5 days.

Sometime with 2 small a tank fish will harass the other even with a so called schooling fishing like pj cards. I had 5 in a 125 year ago they did ok. But yes one was king of the tank

Yeah that's a good point. I thought of that once maybe I put them in the larger tank they would chill. Didn't want to take the risk.

Would add them all at same time if I where you. When fish are small and young you can get away with more stuff then once they are full grown and established a territory in your tank
