help me find a fish

[fishyfish22]

i'm looking for a reef safe fish that will eat amphipods, but will not touch crabs, snails, or shrimp. i know most people say amphipods are good not bad, but i have seen them eating ony of my zoa frags until there was nothing left but glue. they have moved on to a larger colony and i need to stop them before they take that one too. not looking for one that has a 50% chance of eating other shrimp/crabs/snails. anyone know of such a fish?

I had a tassled filefish that loooooved amphipods, but it might also eat your zoas or other things you like. Wrasses will pose the same dilemma.

sixline wrasse, leopard wrasse

 

[nanoreefer1000]

possum wrasse or pink streaked wrasse or some of the more peaceful dottybacks (Orchid, Lined, or Indigo are good)

went with a sixline, looks like a fun fish.

Good choice I bought a sixline for the exact same reason. Still to many large amphipods left lurking over my zoas so looking for a helper for the sixline.
Mine doesnt mess with my shrimp or crabs.
