Sixline Question

My friend has a sixline that is acting like a complete SOB in his tank...Not sure his other tank mates and corals...But I am wanting to put him in my 14g biocube, i have kenya tree, zoas, gsp..LPS(acans,frogspawn,duncan)

He says the Wrasse is just picking on his corals and what not..But i dont want to put him in there and have him terrorize my shrimp, corals or other fish.

WOuld this be a risky buy?

 

While I am no expert....I once kept a sixline without any problems. The key I found was to keep him WELL fed. This will help to distract him from your corals.

 

I wouldn't do it. If the fish is already being a PITA going into a small tank with other inhabitants can't go well.
Six Lines are known to be very aggressive fish for some reason.

 

While they can be kept in small tanks they are better suited to larger tanks so they feel they have enough food to eat. I have never had one attack corals.

 

Not one problem with mine except he only has one eye

 

I agree, especially in small systems.

 

Sixline are very active fish so a 14g wouldn't be large enough anyways.

 

Okay, thanks for the help....I probably wont do it now..
