Be cautious adding other leopards to a kuiteri in a 75g tank. The fact that it is exerting it's dominance over non-related fish does not bode well for introducing other leopards.So I finally found a local store that had a kuiteri in stock! Owner said it had been in store for around a month. Saw that it was eating well and took it home as I have wanted this fish for quite some time. I have had the fish for a week and she is eating well and is adjusting to my tank. I have two clowns and 4 zebra dartfish. My tank is a 120g 48x24x24 and would like to add some other leopards to the tank (thinking two more). I have observed the kuiteri this week and she is somewhat aggressive and will check my clowns and dartfish during feeding. Any recommendations on timing or what other leopards I should consider (meleagris, geoffroyi, ornatus, bipartitus)? I have heard that the kuiteri can be more aggressive than other leopards.
You can try introducing new ones with an acclimation box.
Larger tanks diffuse aggression. More species diffuse aggression. Rhomboids are usually pretty peaceful. Rubrimarginatus are a bit more assertive.What's the general rule with putting together fairy wrasses from the same family? I have a male Rhomboid and was considering adding a male Cirrhilabrus rubrimarginatus.
They would be the only two wrasses.........I can add one or two more if it would help. For example a McCoskers or other small non aggressive species.
