    Good to know. I love my Lyretails, although the females have been acting more like Blennies and perching on the rock work

    if you plan to get more, only keep 1 male per tank, but if you are going to add females, add a min of 3 AT THE SAME TIME! otherwise the male may kill them. But a male by itself should be fine.

    The tank is not big enough for a harem.
