40Breeder Seems Empty

[bmbpka]

My 40 breeder seems very empty in regards to fish.

2 Clowns
2 Green Chromis
1 Bangahi
1 Fire Fish

Bare bottom tank. I’ve tried two Royal Grammas now, and they have died. I expect my clowns are killing them.

Suggestions on additions? Give up because my clowns are jerks? Acclimation box for a bit to let the clowns adjust to new friends?

I swore there was a thread on this already. A catch all for these questions but I can’t find it.

Established clowns are tough to overcome. A Lubbock's wrasse would definitely add color and they can be feisty at times.

My clowns got their very own biocube due to harassing my wrasses when adding them. I will probably try to add then back after I add a couple more fish to the DT.

I used a acclimation box, wrasses in the box when added, then ended up putting the clowns in the box a few days. Didnt help and the LFS had a used biocube so they were banished
