Cool tank! Watch that hamlet, it went after the gramma in the video, and *might* try to take out a damsel if it gets hungry enough.

He and the Gramma have tentative truce (occasionally they will take turns bluffing one another...silly sea basses lol) and have since they were in a tank together back in Georgia.

The Golden tends to be more of a crustacean eater (at least as far as my 4 specimens go) but of course will keep an eye on him for real aggression.

My other caribbean fish are finally getting settled into their homes after cycling and seeding. I'm happy that everything is really healthy and doing well!

I have a mostly Caribbean biotype in one of my 50gallon IM tanks. Fish: OrangeBack & Cave Basslet, Pike Blenny, have a small brazilian gramma, chalk bass, tessellate blenny (invasive) but in the Caribbean. Corals, ricordia, lots of gorgonians, a few sponges, zoas (not all Atlantic). It’s my favorite of 3 tanks right now.

Soon I will add some ricordea, rock flower anemones, a few pieces of star coral I've picked up and a few gorgonians. It's an amazing bottle to collect!

Also, the orangeback bass is an all time favorite!
