HOLA!

Been thinking about a 18" Zebra Eel in my 125 gal.
FOWLR

i currently have a Bird Wrasse & a Dusky Wrasse. Tons of sand and Rock. Is there a QT procedure that I am missing ( other than TTM ) for Eels ?
Thanks?

Unfortunately I do not provide analysis of aggressive fish community tanks. Please post your question in the aggressive fish forum. Thanks.

I have a 54 gal mixed reef with a pajama Cardinal and one percula clown fish. They have been alone together for a few years. Can I add two antheas or what would you suggest.

Anthias require a larger tank, especially if paired. I do not provide recommendations for a variety of reasons, however I would be happy to analyze any stocking plan provided tank size and occupants are submitted.

Can I then add two or more Banggai cardinals.

Can I then add two or more Banggai cardinals.

A male plus female would work, preferably tank raised.

Also interested in what LiveAquaria is calling a "Green Wrasse" - Halichoeres chloropterus. It states the fish can get up to 8 inches, but lists minimum aquarium size as 75g. Is one of those a typo? Would a Halichoeres (specifically, chloropterus or claudia) work in my tank with my current plan?

Yes, it should. Halichoeres wrasses are very peaceful other with fish.

You had mentioned to me eventually a pair of clowns would take up 25 of my 46 gallon tank.

If I only had a single clown,do they occupy a lot less space? My phantom died last night. Very upsetting.

The remaining clown will eventually become female. At that point she will want to control nearly the same amount of tank space.

How long does it take to turn female? It's by itself in the DT. It is quite small. And I wanted to replace the large phantom with another large. Phantom.

Hello,

I have a 65 gallon mixed reef tank (42 x 22 x 16h), 33 gallon sump, and about 65-70 lbs of live rock.

I currently have:
1 watchman goby
1 ocellaris clownfish
1 blue flasher wrasse

I was hoping to add 1 or 2 more male wrasses, I've read its ideal to add them all at once together, but since it is to late for that I was wondering if you think it would be possible.

Below are the wrasses I'm looking at, are there any 2 from that list or others that would be the most peaceful/successful?

-Whip Fin Fairy
-Long Fin Fairy
-Carpenters Flasher
-McCosker's Flasher
-Linespot Flasher
-Yellow Fin Flasher

Thanks for your help!

Unanswerable. It may have already started to become female. Best is to replace with a tiny clown of the same species.

Sure. Use an acclimation box and it should work

-Whip Fin Fairy avoid, too aggressive
-Long Fin Fairy avoid, too aggressive
