I have had a coral beauty in every tank I have had in the last 20 hrs. I love the color of this, my experience, reef safe fish. The one I currently have though is another store all together... He is a jerk to everyone except my Yellow Tang who is much bigger than the CB. In a short while the YT will need to be re-homed as he is getting too big. At that time I think the CB will be re-homes too.
I love this hobby, I just wish I could have a tank big enough for everything I want. That being said I am thankful for what I have.
Enjoy the hobby!
Is that not a purple dottyback, Pseudochromis porphyreus?
Pretty sure.
We've all had those fish that are just mean! I call them BULLY FISH! I understand it's in the nature of fish to protect territory and stuff like that but sometimes a fish is just a big bully! Sometimes they not only bully other fish but they bully YOU! HA! Today let's talk about the fish that have been a menace to your other tank inhabitants and which ones you would stay clear of!
What fish have you had bad luck with when it comes to being a bully in the tank?
What fish would you caution people to stay away from?
The worst fish I have had (so far) was a bicolor dottyback. He bullied, killed, and was completely obnoxious. I ended up having to drain the tank about 1/2 way, and remove all the rock and corals to get him out of there. Never another dottyback, not even an orchid.

I have a large Cinnamon Clown that was pushing my Dogface Puffer around like a beach ball and biting at him.We've all had those fish that are just mean! I call them BULLY FISH!
