Personally, Avoid Scott’s wrasse or any wrasse from that complex. Since you want another wrasse from that genus it will most likely go down hill, If you want to see how I’m making a C. melanomarginatus work out with 4 other wrasse (and a H. Chloropterus working with this group) then I will explain it in my 4’ build thread in a few days when I figure out how it is working out.I know it’s only been a few days since my last fish died and it’ll be a few months before I can begin adding fish again but I need help with how to go about adding back the fish I lost.
Hopefully the remaining fish will survive
A watchman goby, 3 pj cardinals and a 6 line wrasse.
I’d like to put back the fish I lost but not sure in what order and how many at once ?
this is my restocking list:
A pair of clownfish
Royal gramma
Midas blenny
Tailspot blenny
Foxface
Coris
Coral beauty or flame angel
Scott’s wrasse
Naoko wrasse
Mandarin goby (I won’t add until tank and pods are mature and established)
I’m also planning to upgrade to a 175-200 gallon within the next year and I’ll buy a juvenile foxface so his adult size won’t become an issue
I’m also undecided on putting the 6 line back in because of potential territorial and aggression.
Ideally I’ll put the 5 remaining fish back first then I’d like to add the clownfish, gramma and blennies next after quarantining, can they all be added at the same time or should some be added before others ?
When you say “Coris” wrasse do you mean the yellow “coris”, green “coris” or the true Coris wrasses?
Ditch the sixline, these as said above have a chance of giving hell to other wrasse and fish. I recommend adding the two blennies at the same time for ultimate chances of success.
