buying fish

[SighKenny]

Pistol shrimp aren't part of your cuc.

ah gotcha

Is there a possibility of that eel trying to eat the smaller fish?

from the people ive talked to who have lots of experience with eels as long as its on a dead food diet and with how small dwarfs stay (they rarely get longer than 1') itll be unlucky he'll mess with anyone other than the goby and thats only if i dont feed him enough

Look at all the fish at the LFS, not just the ones you want to buy. Most share the same water, or at least wet hands. If any show signs of disease, scratching rocks or sand, or acting funny, dont buy anything. Better to wait instead of rushing and getting Ich or velvet

what're signs of velvet? I know ick is usually like white spots the size of salt or whatever

I would still put the larger fish in last because they are most agressive in that tank.

Cardinals and goby (either order or together)

Clowns and chalk bass either order, each group at same time though)

Fox face and Kole tang (same time)

Probably eel last (my assumption, have only had an eel with larger fish, and not that eel)

That's just how I would do it. Others mileage may vary.

This would be the order I would do also.

Sorry, I edited in there but it didn't take. I would put him in after the first two.
