PipeFish ?

[Lpabsolute]

Hey, i was wondering what the care level would be on a small pipefish. Have a 54g reef tank. Would they be compatable with two small baby clowns and maybe a six line wrasse? Any advice would be helpful. Thanks... My tank is also open top, would that be a problem?

One thing I see right off the bat is 2 clowns and a sixline may out compete for food with pipefish. That is, if you get a frozen food eating kind. If they only eat live food-pods, mysis, brine..... then you would have to have a very big resource of them in a fuge or somewhere where you can restock your display tank often.

Good luck, and keep us posted.

Clownfish maybe a bit too aggressive to be kept with a pipefish.

i keep 2 percula clowns with my sea horses and pipefish. they seem to get along fine. the pipefish steals the food from the clowns.lol the clowns stay on one side of the tank and dont even notice the pipefish. they all eat fozen too. im sure that helps.
