So I introduced a leopard wrasse into my 90 gal tank a week ago. I have a blue hippo tang and flame fin Tomini tang already in the tank already and they seem to bully the leopard wrasse. Will this stop eventually? I feed 2 times a day and probably over feed a little so I don’t think food is an...
I'm setting up a 125g Corals + Larger Fish tank and i'm looking for some unique additions to add to the roster. During my research I ran into Zebrias fasciatus, which seems like a decent choice for a unique fish to add into that type of system. I have a few guesses on behavior (Fairly predatory...
Hey everyone
I’m due to add another fish (or 2) to the tank but I’m really struggling. I have a fire fish which is extremely peaceful so was put off clowns as I don’t want them to bother him and a lot of people have said clowns will turn aggressive as they mature.
I also really like the...
I know this is going to get the police sirens sounding but worth a shot. I’m in the process of picking out fish for my Waterbox 50.3 and I would absolutely love a tang as the centerpiece fish. I know I’m extremely extremely limited and would have to likely go out and get a juvenile and trade it...

I currently have a 55-gallon tank and have a sleeper banded goby, Foxface, clownfish, and a hawkfish in the tank. Thoughts on adding a blue-spotted puffer fish or is the tank at capacity?
I'm setting up a new and bigger tank for a school of blue-green chromis. I've watched the recent BRS chromis tank build, but that is a huge tank and I'm not prepared to get a big grouper to balance out the chromis school. I do need a slightly aggressive tank mate though to encourage the...

Hello, I want to know what are some peaceful wrasses, that also won't eat something like sexy shrimp or small featherdusters ( if they even exist lol) For now I'm thinking of a cleaner wrasse, as they are quite small...
Hello, so i'm looking for some advice on a fish species that would be good at eating the nori flakes that float around in tank after feeding my tangs/angels. I feed 2 sheets of nori a day and get a considerable amount of nori particles in the filter socks. I used to have a few cromis that did a...
I have a 50 gallon tank 48" long 18" wide. I was wondering if there is a school of 4 anthias I could keep in there. Also some advice for keeping them. If there are any other interesting schooling fish that are compatible with my size reef tank I am up for suggestions.
Genuinely curious on some really cool and unique fish for a 5 gallon evo tank. Stocking is limited of course due to size so something really out there would be a great way to utilize the small space I feel. What would be some good options ?
