Suggestions for next fish.

Ever consider a Banggai Cardinalfish?



I love them. I had two until my damsel, I mean percula clown, killed 'em both. I've got a good mind to feed him rat poison. (Not really, but it makes me feel better saying it.)

I've never had a Gramma. I've had Anthias, and if I remember correctly, they don't really swim. They kinda just hang. I like swimmers.

 

Never really thought much about them. They kinda seem wierd.

I like swimmers too. From what I have read, Anthias are supposed to be quite active. My three Chromis are active, but they mainly stay up top. I don't really see them much. Heck, I forget I have them sometimes.

 

Operation Red Sea was a success. However, his Lt. got away. I decided to take out the Scopas too. He hangs out in the same area.

I put the water back in. Going to let it calm down. Seal off the escape routes, and try one more time. Got to run to the vet real quick.

 

Banggai Cardinals are extremely passive.. they hardly move, so if you like swimmers anthias are a much better choice IMO. I've had 2 pairs of banggai's and they all died.. they don't tolerate warm water or aggressive tankmates..
I currently have a pair of bi-color anthias and they are great, very active fish - need to feed them protein often though.

 

I love them too.. but don't seem to be able to take care of them.. I guess they would do better in a smaller and less crowded tank.
I also HATED my clown.. didn't pick on anything else but.. me
every time I put my hand in there to spot feed the corals I got bitten by the little monster

 

MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!

I just bought 2 Lyretails. That is all they had. They expect more and I will get one more.

 

Here they be

 

Long nosed Hawk-Cool fish

 

I wanted as Hawk fish before, but did not want them eating all my inverts.

 

Sorry, never mind.
