Newbie question

[shaggymc]

Hey all, I've been reading through these threads and haven't seen a defenitive answer to some questions, so I thought I'd post it to the experts here.


I have a 40 tall with 144w 12k Power compact Bulbs and 158w Atinic Power Compact Bulbs

I have stocked 1 Yellow Tail Damsel, 1 Humbug Damsel, 1 Lawnmower Blennie, 1 Molly Miller Blennie 2 Emerald Crabs and A bunch of snails and a couple Hermits.

I want to Add a BTA and a pair of Clowns... Do I need to worry about any of these fish becoming lunch for the RTA? And do I have enough light for it?


Thanks for the advice!

I wouldnt worry about a BTA eating any fish, they are pretty mellow . Just put the BTA up high on top of a rock.

One thing to note is that clownfish and damsles are in the same family you may have some agression in the fututre.

That is not true.I have kept a group of 3 yellow tails and a pair of Tomato clowns.I never had any problems.The only time that the clowns charged at them was because the damsels got to close to the anemone or the clownfish terittory.

clowns101.. you cannot say his statement is untrue. there is nothing in that statement that is untrue.. they ARE in the same family and there MAY be some agression. He was relating facts. you were just relating YOUR experience.
