00W's AIO Smorgasbord

I think they already paired up, I stopped by my LFS and bought a smaller acclimatization box ( the one i have is huge and it cover a lot of light and interrupts with the flow ) to see if I can put the six line in that one and give time for the shrimp and the goby to make their cave and so the six line relaxes a little, what do you guys think?

Yes. Put the Wrasse in the box. Take him out of his comfort zone.

Amazing Luis! Such a fun pair. Tiger pistol, right? Perfect species for a YWG, IMO!

Yes Jojo, tiger pistol! I'm happy that the goby woke up a little better and they already paired up from what I can see

Thank you my friend!

Thank you my friend!

Good idea. A little jail time can help correct behavior--at least for a bit. You can also rearrange the rockscape to disrupt the "territory lines" if that's not a huge pain. I've read that can sometimes help with aggression -- I've never done it because.. uggh

It's not a bad idea but my tank is not big enough to make moves in the aquascape

Another benefit of 6-line jail time is that the pistol can set up shop and when the YWG moves in with the pistol they'll have a hideaway to avoid rhe 6-line.

Worst case, if the 6-line goes down that "last man standing" road, might try swapping out the 6 for a pair of pink streaks!

I think that’s a solid plan.

OR... Trade him in for a pair of Springeri Damsels or a Halichoeres Chrysus except I think your tank might be too small for the Chrysus.

Aren't those damsels aggressive? When I first had the tank, it came with a blue or black damsel with a gold stripe that attacked everyone. That was the only time I had to take out all the rocks to catch it because it was killing the other fish.

Springeri typically aren't. There are always exceptions to the rule but Springeri tend to be more docile than the typical Damsels. Both of mine are model citizens.

The Springeri are not they are a lovely color and fun to watch!

Biocube 32 is a bit tight for a Halichoeres. They get 4-5". Pink streaks! Peaceful, super cute, what's not to love!?

Yep. I couldn't remember what size tank. I'm going to need you and Jennifer to step up and take my place as intern here.

I think it’s slowly getting better.

 

[luis angel]

He is making the cave right in the front part of the tank.

I got to break in the new grill for Mother’s Day.

Happy Mother's Day to all the mothers!
