Dragonface pipefish

[Wolf89]

How difficult would it be to keep a dragonface pipefish in a 90G mixed/sps reef? No other pod eaters, lightish stocking. Higher flow, tons of pods with a 40G fuge.

not difficult. I have 4 in my system.

but will high flow kill/hurt them?

They live in reefs and are known to help with acro eating flat worms, they will do fine in high flow.

I have one in my custom 90g and he manages to get around just fine. I have two returns, two mp40's and two gyres. I love to watch him work his way around and I often find him swimming from rock to rock right into the flow. Great fish! One day I'll find a female so they can hang out together.
