Hey! Question, I’m setting up a new 150 and have a single mono argentus from a local business that was getting rid of their fish, he’s in a temporary holding tank with a large blue tang and a foxface.

Question: I’m going to be using the 150 as my main display so my pair of clownfish, chromis and small foxface, and a small group of anthias are going into that 150. Will the large mono be compatible? I had a bad experience before with some monos beating up some clowns in the past. He is about 5” long, so not small by any means. Thanks!

Monos are generally peaceful
Chromis and anthias are rather fast moving fish

Ya, I’m more nervous about the clowns, I had a group of monos in the past that picked on them almost to death, but then again, the monos were in that tank for years before I added the clowns

Being that the clowns are/were in tank first, should go a little smoother
