Reasearch turns up everything from: reef safe, reef safe with caution, 50/50, good tankmate, a little bit of a bully, to a terror.
I am working to stock a 425XL, 47x22x23. Right now we have a pair of clowns, two purple firefish, two cleaner shrimp, a small CUC, a hammer and a frogspawn. There is an awful cute Cherub at the LFS. Pretty small, very active, eating well. And we kind of want him.
I have read that they can be semi aggressive, but our clowns are semi aggressive. I can't imagine a dwarf that size could be more of a bully than the clowns. In the future we would consider adding a royal gramma, bangaii, maybe a tang or two.
I guess more than being aggressive I am concerned with the "with caution" tag. I have seen a vendor list them as reef safe but I have searched and read some threads where people have said that they are 50/50 with corals. We are planning a mixed reef and we would really like to add some zoas.
Has anyone kept a cherub with zoas?
Is this guy a time bomb? Worth a chance? Fine? Or absolutely forget about it?
Appreciate any advice, thanks in advance.
