Hi, I am thinking about adding a schooling banner fish to my tank, what experiences have people had with these fish in a reef set up.
I currently have
2 clownfish
5 blue/green chromis
2 yellow head sleeper gobies
1 coral beauty angel
1 filamented flasher wrasse
Small red starfish
Medium orange starfish
large blue starfish
1 peppermint shrimp
1 pistol shrimp
3 Snails
3 Hermit crabs
1 abalone

Tank is 100 gallons with 55 pounds of live rock and 45 pounds of base rock, sand bed is 2 inches
Will the banner fish get alone with these fish and would a blue tang and royal grama go with them also
thank you
 
I have one in a 110g FO. It got REALLY big REALLY fast. Not sure if I can keep it long term....
 
Make sure you can tell the difference between H. diphreutes and H. accuminatus, before getting one. H. diphreutes is generally reef safe, while H. accuminatus can/does eat everything coral wise. Also, they will outgrow a 100 gal. tank fairly soon.
 
I had three heniochus in my 225 and they picked at my corals quite a bit, I eventually had to catch all three. I must have had the H. accuminatus.
