    If a fish is attractive, it eats coral.

    If it doesn't eat coral, it kills other fish.

    If it doesn't kill other fish, it jumps.

    If it doesn't jump, it gets too big for my tank.

    AAAAAAARRRRRRRGGGHHH!!!!!!!!



    Sorry; had to vent. Thanks for being there for me. ;D

    i disagree completely. I have a 24 gal nanocube reef with a coral beauty, a strawberry basslet, and a domino damsel. No problems at all.
