royal gramma

Hi all. I just added a lawnmower blenny yesterday. He’s about 3.5 inches already so not really a baby. He’s bullying my Royal gramma quite badly to where she is pretty much not moving. Just hiding or laying in the back of the tank. The blenny kicked her out of her normal caves while he explored...

Hey y’all, I’m planning a 75 sps dominated peninsula reef! I decided to put only nano fish in because I like the way it makes the dimensions look. Ive done tons of research and want there to be no fish violence! All peaceful. Basically want to know how well Royal Grammas and Gold Assessor...

Hello all so I noticed about a week maybe 2 weeks back that my Royal Gramma’s tail was damaged, it hasn’t got progressively worse until maybe today it looked a bit more torn possibly, not sure but is this tail rot or another fish nipping him or? I only have a royal gramma, purple fire fish, 2...

Hi All, last week I purchased Royal Gramma and placed it in a QT tank. After few days I saw it scratching against the heater and I started copper (copper safe) treatment. Copper lever is on 2ppm according to API test kit. Two days later and I see it scratching every now and then. Sometimes 3-4...

Hello all, I have a royal gramma in my 20 long, as well i have a pair of clowns, a watchman goby and a blue damselfish, The royal gramma keeps picking up sand with its mouth and throwing it all over the place, Should i be concerned or is this normal behavior?

Hey everyone, So I started this tank in August, so far everything is going great, We upgraded from a 10 gallon to a 20 long, added some new coral (Soft only) as well a Royal gramma who seems to be fitting in really nicely. This is from the 10...

I just had a Royal Gramma die after caring for the fish for months with no signs of disease. The fish died within 24 hours after I noticed it acting distressed. After it died, it had what appeared to be the outline of a bite mark on its side, but the bite mark was about five times the size of...

Hi, probably a but early to be worried. I bought a Royal Gramma yesterday which when added to the tank darted straight for the rocks. It did this in the shop and went inside of the rock there so i think its done the same in my tank. From what ive seen they can hide for quite a while my only...

I recently lost a royal gramma to flukes. We got her about two weeks ago and as soon as she entered the tank our yellow fin damsel was on her. Persistently chasing her and nipping her. so bad that we had to remove her and decided we needed to find a new home for the damsel. She had a bit of...

After posting about my refugium over in the macroalgae forum I decided why not post up my whole build progression while I'm at it. First off, I suppose this would be considered a budget build by most standards, and/or DIY, nearly everything was repurposed from old builds during my last foray in...

Hiya guys, I have a Yasha goby/pistol shrimp pair in my tank and in about a week a pink streaked wrasse is arriving. About a month after it arrives (whenever my tank is ready) I want to add another fish, either a royal gramma or a pictus blenny. Eventually I would like both in my tank, but which...

Hello, So I’m going on a vacation next week for four days. I have already found a “fish sitter”, so to speak, but he’s pretty inexperienced, so I told him to feed my fish pellets instead of mysis. My clownfish eat pellets just fine, but that’s part of the problem. Before my royal gramma gets a...

Hi there, I have an Evo 13.5 set up and am getting around to stocking fish and having never run a nano before i’m wondering if this would be overstocked: Possum wrasse of some kind (wetmorella or Pseudocheilinops) Royal Gramma Tail Spot Blenny Thanks for your help!

Hello all! It’s a sad morning for me as I woke up to my first fish casualty. My hopes for this post is to get any advice as to what may have happened so that I can prevent it in the future. It’s a bit of a long story but I’ll try to be concise. My royal gramma was the first fish in my tank...

Have a question for anyone ......i have a gramma i need to catch asap he really started being a bully to my lubbock wrasse which is 4 times the size of him and quite frank i can care less for the gramma i thought i would take a chance and see how he did and he has been great for over a month now...

I have a 75 gallon with 6 fish; 2 clowns, foxface,blenny, cardinal (which is going bye bye), Royal gramma, and a 6 line. Would like to add a yellow tang, melenarus wrasse, cleaner shrimp, and maybe a black cap basslet. My tank is established and the new fish would be coming from the same system...

I have been thinking about getting royal grammas for my 210 tank since people suggested them. Although i am wondering how many i can keep, im thinking 2-4? Or will more of them spread the aggression? Also, im not sure what to do with them when they are in the quarantine, since in small spaces i...

Hello, I am having an issue with my Royal Gramma bullying my yellow Goby. I’ve had Royal for just over a month and bought my Goby a week later. Royal and the other fish in the tank, a pink streaked Wrasse who I’ve had for months, have both been showing hostility (raising fins and opening...

So yesterday I found out my royal gramma has ich unfortunately. It didn’t look to be a bad case of it and he is still eating and breathing well. Not sure how he got it but things happen I guess. I don’t currently have a quaretiene setup right now but I was planning on turning a spare 20 gallon...

Hello reefing peeps, i have been wanting to do a build thread since i started working on my 75, but that project is on hiatus for various reasons. i have however, got a 14G running to get my feet wet in reefing. Before getting the 14G, i took a spare 10G and started learning the ways of the...

I have read online that royal gramma's were able to be captive-bred long ago, but I don't see them for sale (at least not with the specific label that they were captive-bred)? Also, I added a royal gramma a week ago. She seemed to be doing well on day 1 and 2, but has disappeared since. I...
