    So you think I should go with a more peaceful prede? I was thinking I would need a semiaggressive fish that would be able stand up to the clowns. Think if I were to just get a McCosker wrasse, I just worry about the clowns harassing both the peaceful wrasse and the firefish

    and i forgot to say... I have both, the 6 line is much more active, always out and about and wayyy more colorful! plus it eats right from my turkey baster :D

    and the RG bullies my 6 line when it goes to the RG's "territory"

    I have a purple firefish and a 6-line in the same tank. Have yet to have a problem with any sort of harrassment. The 6-line is always out and about being very active.

    I think you should call someone at LiveAquaria and ask their opinion! They would know more than any of us (no offense!). Ask which would be better and if RG's will eat shrimp, etc.

    I just took my 6 line back to the LFS because it harrased my clowns until one died. I really loved it because it was so active and beautiful, but just too mean.

    think it would harass a firefish, my clowns need to be put in line, but i dont want to put another fish in the tank that would attack my firefish even more
