Flame Scallop Help

[reefdude420]

Should 2 flame scallops do fine in a tank with a coris wrasse and a harrlequin bass? They have picked on shrimp and crabs but the scallops i'm looking at are about 2 inches each. And they have protective shells.

You should know that flame scallops are notoriously difficult to keep alive in captivity. Most are dead within a few months. Having said that, they should be fine with the bass, but the wrasse may pick at it. Not really to worry though as it is probably a gonner one way or another.

i second what sjfishguy said flame scallops they must be fed phyto plankton atleast once daily or they will starve to death. also there "flames" may get nipped by the wrasse. i would say not a good idea.
