    Quick outlay:

    55 hex

    60 lbs live rock. Nice little caves at the

    2 clowns added, then the gramma. No problems. Now the gramma opens his mouth wide and charges the two new firefish.

    Will his aggression die down or will someone have to go back to the lfs?

    He should settle down in a few days.

    Thank you for the info :D

    If I ever do another tank with these two folks together, I will definitely put the firefish in first!

    Definitely, the gramma is a more aggressive fish. If you want to add orange and purple firefish do them at the same time or the orange a week or so before the purple.
