I have a some aptasias in my 66gal RSM and was wondering if/what fish I could get that would eat them.
The reason I can't get shrimps or nudibranches is because I have a yellow coris wrasse and he would rip them apart.
This tank has
1 clown goby
1 small clownfish
1 Yellow Coris wrasse
1 Tri-Color Fairy wrasse
1 Small Vlamingi tang
The only additional thing I plan on adding atm is a clownfish,to have a pair.
Is there any reef-safe fish ,that eats aptasias, that I could put in this tank?
I was thinking a butterflyfish of some sort. But im not sure if the tang and butterfly would get along. Also, it might overstock the tank. If I did get one I would buy an acclimation box for the butterfly,since they tend to not acclimate well...
Maybe a raccoon or copperband butterfly?
My scape in this tank offers a good amount of open water and a semi-tall(for the tank) rock shelf with many overhangs,tunnels, and caves.
The tang is not a fighter AT ALL, it is more afraid of things than aggressive towards them.
The present fish also NEVER have fought,they all get along fine.
I would get a filefish but aren't those non-reefsafe?
