What types of corals y’all got?

1Matthew · Mar 21, 2020

I got a question

1Matthew · Mar 21, 2020

So my tank has only one clownfish and it is not going to hold the nitrates up. Got any recommendations for reef safe fish in a 60 gallon that are compatible with clowns

My 120 6 blue green chromis, lawnmower blenny. Pajama cardinal, yellow coris wrasse, lown, tomini tang and convict tang.
Cardinal, wrasse, blenny are good with clown.

Can I put a yellow tang in my 60?

1Matthew · Mar 21, 2020

What do you recommend stocking my tank with?

X-37B · Mar 22, 2020

Thats really a personel decision.
My 2 tangs are in a 120.
It can be done but most wont recommend it.
Do some more research before deciding.
I put a pygmy cherub angel fish in my 120 and 2 months later had to remove it as it started picking at all my sps.

I would not. You could temporarily, but the fish will outgrow the tank and you'll have to remove it and by then you're attached to it.. Look at wrasses and dwarf angels

What type of wrasses y’all recommend

1Matthew · Mar 22, 2020

I just added a pintail wrasse and he is cool.

Edit: I did a little searching and it looks like the pics on google for pintail fairy wrasse. Only been a week and seems friendly, active and colorful.

For commonly available wrasses I'm partial to the Halichoeres genus:
Melanurus Wrasse (Halichoeres melanurus)
Adorned Wrasse (Halichoeres cosmetus)
Timor Wrasse (Halichoeres timorensis)
Yellow Wrasse (Halichoeres chrysus)
Christmas Wrasse (Halichoeres claudia)

Any of those would do fine in a 60.
But also look at the fairy and flasher wrasses! Lots of great wrasses.

Dream wrasse: Femininus Wrasse (Anampses femininus)
