Neon Dottyback safe with Royal Gramma?

[Reefer08]

I just purchased a tank raised Neon Dottyback (Pseudochromis aldabraensis) will my Royal Gramma be safe? The Neon Dottyback is small in size and the royal gramma is full grown 4+ inches. Thanks for the advice

I forgot to mention but my royal gramma has been in the tank for 2 years and my tank is a 67g. Thanks

Nope. Eventually, someone's gonna get their butt kicked (probably the Gramma).

Personally after seeing adult of this species, i'd say no. The grammas are too laid back to shake one off.

And I will join the consensus that they are not compatible.

Neon dottybacks are one of the most agressive of the dottyback species. You may have some peace for a while, but eventually the dottyback will harrass and possibly kill the gramma.
