need opinions on new fish?!?

I know the yellows don't get near as big as the blues, but aren't as pretty IMO. And some have been known to be mean as hell...

 

damn why you have to tell me that!. i am already scared to get a tang.
all really cool fish but i just think they would be too big in my tank.

 

Hey bluephish, how about a flame angel or coral beauty?

 

just looked at pics and i really like the white cheek.

i have wanted a flame angel since i was in the lfs cycling my tank, but that may eat corals thing is kinda scarey.!!


and i just seen a coral beauty nice size. he came up to the glss when i was looking at him. thats a good thing.

 

They won't all eat corals, especially if you keep it well fed.

 

oh man i forgot completely about them fish?. and i seen both today?.

 

Don't be scurred! Any fish could bring in any sort of disease. It isn't just tangs, heck that damn disease killed a tang, foxface, and clown in my tank so all fish are a risk. Just go for it and don't worry, I've found that the more you worry the more problems you seem to have! Let us all know what you decide, and take your time!

 

honestly i think i just swayed towards the coral beauty.

how is it about eating corals.

 

You should keep in mind that while they may occasionally nip at corals, it doesn't mean they will eat them. Coral beauties are probably the most reef safe angel and also the easiest to care for. I am actually thinking about getting one for my tank. Also, I don't know why people are bad mouthing chromis, I really liked my 3 chromis, they add a nice little flash of irredecent blue, are cheap.

 

In my 55 I got

2 Osc clowns
1 orange firefish
1 Royal Gramma
1 Bi-Color Blenny

Plan on adding a 6-line wrasse in a few weeks.


If that gives you any ideas
