What should be my next fish?

[Lynnmw1208]

Gramma, midas and carpenter wrasse are the exact three fish I have currently lol. To the op, I suggest a flasher wrasse, it won't destroy pods your mandarin needs. Ill be adding a mandarin to my tank as well and have no fear of my flasher competing for pods. Very rarely do I see him strike a rock for pods.

cool! Thanks for that info! The flasher wrasses are really pretty too!

Yeah they are brilliant. I'm lucky to have one that flashes up and down the tank even though he's the only flasher in the tank. Usually after his belly is full, or I change the wave mode on my vortechs he will flash the tank from end to end for me, its amazing how fast he gets from one end to the other....less than a second I bet lol!

thanks for the tip! I wouldn't want this at all! How about lawnmower blennies or tailspots? I wonder if the kole would pick on them as well :hmm1:

Not sure about the tailspot, but I'll bet the lawnmower would also be a target. Of course, every fish is different, but I've heard the same reports from others with koles. I've kept a tailspot before, but never in a large tank and never with big fish like tangs. Maybe someone who has will chime in.

A lot of people are saying it's hit or miss with them. Seems like most of these guys will eat snails, and I'm not sure I want to be buying snails all the time since it's hard to find ceriths around here. lol. so tempting though as it is a gorgeous fish!

yup gorgeous indeed, it would have been a great addition if it really doesn't bother your CUC and inverts.
