So I have a question for everyone. I came home today and I was like everyone is pretty much ignoring the new little guy (earl's) so let's let him out. Wrong. I had fed the tank so everyone was eating but as soon as they were done had some chasing, mainly from my pink-streaked wrasse. He chased him into everyone territory. He probably would have made it, but I didn't want to chance it, so lucky he was hanging out at the top (which is typical). So I was able net him and put him back in his acclimation box. A little bit of fins nipped. I left him out for about an hour. He's doing good now. Swimming around the box.
So my question is how long should I keep him in the acclimation box? He is the smallest fish in a 280 gallon display. Thought I was safe as no one would see him as a threat. Also next time he is getting released right before lights go out.
For wrasses in addition to the pink-streaked, I have a lineutus, and blue sided wrasse.
Thanks for the help
