Hello all!
I have an established redsea max e170. It is ~37gal display and 45gal total volume. It has quite a lot of live rock and will mostly be softies and LPS.
I currently have:
(2) ocellaris clown fish
(1) midas blenny.
(1) cleaner shrimp
(1) fire shrimp
(1) tiger conch
Tons of snails
All three of the fish have a lot of character, and are fairly peaceful. I want to add two more fish with fun personalities. I was thinking of adding a longnose hawkfish and a six line wrasse.
I was looking at the hawkfish for its unique behavior and perching tendancy. And the six line wrasse for its high activity and parasite/ crud picking behaviors.
My understanding is that the midas blenny, hawkfish, and wrasse can all be considered semi aggressive. I am hoping they are different enough color and body shapes that they will be fine together. What do you all think?
Finally I am not married to the idea of a six line wrasse, are there any others that you would suggest? I like the look of the flasher wrasses, but how is there personality?
I'd love to hear any and all experiences and suggestions!
Cheers!
