Okay so I have 2 rabbit fish a lo foxface who’s around 5-6” and a new scribbled rabbit fish who’s maybe 2”. They got along great I’m just wonder if they can be in that tank long term or more specifically forever. I know they can cohabit peacefully in a 125 but I’ve researched and saw that it’s possible they can also coexist in a 90. Here’s some pictures of what the tank and them looks like! I’d love to hear your takes on this but in the event one of them has to go it will be the scribbles because the foxface was my first ever saltwater fish he’s very sentimental to me!

You’ll never have bubble algae in that tank lol !! 😎
lol I wish I could grow algae but I literally can’t. I haven’t been able to grow anything but the brown diatoms. This may sound dumb but any tips to grow anything other types of algae

A month old, but it’s flourishing with life
It will take some time to get it mature . 3 months to a year or so . Just make sure that no matter what , keep your parameters in tach . Especially your nitrates and phosphates . Never let them go to zero . A little patients and you should be fine . Good luck !! 😎

Both of those fish can reach 9 to 10" in size. 90 isn't doing either of them any favors. You can get away with it today because there are no corals of any size in there. Fish only has room. Corals take up room.
