Mexican Turbo and Foxface

Nice combo!

 

[Whasmack]

I agree - Turbo & Foxface!

 

[Gareth elliott]

Teluga + bristletooth tang, larger tank hippo just because less aggressive makes adding other fish easier.

 

[Sailfin11]

Kole tang and Stomatella snail

 

[Auquanut]

Mexican turbos cause they do a good job and breed like rabbits in my tank. Yellow eye Kole tang cause he NEVER stops pecking at the rocks.

Agreed turbos snail and Kole tang. Kole always grazing even when prepared foods enter the tank.

My only concern with the Fox Face is some like to eat zoanthids!

 

[Deep dive coral]

Also blue tangs like to eat zoanthids.

Also blue tangs like to eat zoanthids.

I have heard that but I have never had one eat zoas but I have seen a foxface eat them.

Snails are worthless. You don’t need any
