Firefish

i wonder why fish of the same class have problems with their brothers and cousins.doesnt make sense but owell.i guess its like humans we dont like our neighbors always lol gotta punch the sucker in the face if he doesnt want to give you sugar.lmao

 

It is the shear fact that they are in such close quarters. Many genus of fish who get along perfectly well and even school in their native reefs will become quite territorial in such a closed ecosystem such as an aquarium.. The smaller the aquarium, the more territorial they become...Of course none of the the compatibility charts, etc...are set in stone. What might work in one tank may be disasterous in another...8)

 

Was wondering about feeding...I put some mysis right near his burrow and he came right out to eat. Today is really the first day we saw him come out of his burrow...He has been acclimating himself for the past few days. Does anyone have one,if so how often do you feed them?

 

i would have to say about the same as any other fish. when i had my dotty back he ate the same as others.i do every other day and random treats durring the week.

 

Cool, ok..How about feeding a pearly jawfish? I am reading a few times a day...We also have Lyretail Anthias and I am hearing that you should feed them several times a day...I really do not like feeding like that...

 

Glad your new addition is working out...

 

Hate to disagree...but mine is a friendly peaceful fish existing with a wide variety of cohabitants...:-/

I Love My Sixline :sweethear

Of course, can be exceptions with all fish.

"Om"

"Reef on"​

 

i dont think you have to feed jawfish several times a day unless you want him to grow big.cuz as well all know fish can grow with large amounts of food.they never stop eating.lol

 

No doubt, I love my sixline as well. He is one awesome fish...He just wanted to kill that fairy wrasse...He does not bother any other tankmates...

 

i think that the sixline is a great fish in many ways.he is nice and humble but when he needs to get mean he will.he proves that size does not matter lol.i love mines
