My tank 3' x 2' x 20" tall and plenty of rocks and sand bottom. I have a black and a blue star leopard. These two are juvies and added together about 3 months ago. They hang out together all the time like buddies. Question is can I add another black or ornate juvie maybe even both? LFS currently have them available for curb side pick up.

Another black could cause issues, I would go for the ornate.

Wish I could find another black, my last one went carpet surfing while doing maintenance.

Just thinking about that many leopards makes me shiver. I miss my blue star
Yes these are my favorites. Always swimming around and looking for pods. Just look very natural and peaceful to have in a reef.

i have a number of them in my large tank (450) and aggression can be a problem. Tried adding a black a few weeks ago after a protracted QT and have not seen it since :(
