Flaming prawn goby WOULD be amazing but doubt I'd ever get my lower middle class hands on them but heavily considering a manderin goby... I have been seeding my tank with all sorts of pods but waiting for a REEEL established colony for em
Blue spots are very pretty, but I understand they are a colder water fish?
Not in particular....theyre collected in mexico.
Curiousity got the best of me and yes youre correct with temps in the gulf getting down into the 50s and 60s but i do think theyre relatively acclaimated once they come into the suppliers and LFS.
I’d say the wrasse/angel first, then the hawk, put the mandarin last. The wrasse will compete for copepods with the mandarin so make sure you have a feeding system and aren’t just dosing pods and hoping you have enough to feed them.
I love my pigmy angel and my canary blenny...the pigmy is just so busy In and out of the reef and the blenny is just cool to watch. One thing thats kinda funny...my angel is best friends with my strawberry pseudochromis, they actually play and pal around. Who knew! Also 8 though my bleeny was trying to die, turns out he just likes to lay on his side at the top corner of the tank at bed time.
This is true, I had a coral banded shrimp kill and eat a sleeping 6 line wrasse. I think the shrimp was decently well-fed also. I love coral bandeds but there is a slight danger of this, especially in smaller systems I think.
