Final fish for my tank?

[Zoe’s Reef]

You should mabye do like a small fairy, flasher or possum wrasse. 6line get really active and will kill stuff

By “kill stuff” what stuff exactly do you mean?

 

[NoahLikesFish]

Mabye try a pair of green banded gobies, or neon gobies or mabye a jawfish? you would need a bit of crushed coral or rubble for jawfish

They will kill small inverts and decimate your pods

Okay, thanks!

 

[NoahLikesFish]

Pods help eat phytoplankton, waste and algae in ur tank too

 

[Zoe’s Reef]

Pink streak wrasse would be ok tho?

 

[NoahLikesFish]

Unless you have a big refugium it wouldn’t work imo.

Probably not same genus right?

 

[NoahLikesFish]

Oh they are very closely related and have similar mouth structure. I’d say MABYE, I wouldn’t do it because having pods in your tank is very important

 

[NoahLikesFish]

These are the jawfish, they make burrows and are mouthbrroders. all you need is a bit of crushed rock or shells and you can keep them very happy in that tank

 

[NoahLikesFish]

I’d say they are good because they are more site and vertically oriented fish as opposed to a wrasse which needs tons of live rock to swim around and through to pick all the pods off

 

[NoahLikesFish]

Don’t worry if you have a thin substrate (I’d say at least 1” is recommended as a overall depth for them to have enough to make a burrow) they will move it around to make a burrow

I’m getting a pair for my 20 long most likely, the easiest kind is def the pearly jawfish or yellow head (same species) because they are the most outgoing

Couldn’t you just add additional pods? I already have a healthy population and have added pods a few times already.

I have this fish and not a bully at all- (Chrysiptera cf. springeri)

I very much like this one. Both beautiful blue and an assassin of pests.

+1 on adding a six line. I love watching mine swim around and they're beautiful imo. They're also great at keeping pests at bay.

Figure out YOUR fish situation, then consider giving advice. @NoahLikesFish

Mandiran, Cherub, or a royal gramma. Mandiran would be fine with the blenny.

So six line is ok? Haha because it’s really what I want.

Six lines are really a hit or miss fish I have seen somes bully huge maroon clowns and I have seen some act like an angel.
