While firefish can hide well, I would not trust this situation

I’m going to say yes. Three inches is pretty small, but he’s going to get bigger. It’s been a long time since I’ve had a Picasso. They will eat all your cleanup crew for sure.

I am not sure, but they may be fine until the trigger gets bigger. May not end well.

Picasso is pushing it a lot in a 125g. Is it already in the tank? You posted in other posts that you are adding a couple tangs too. That trigger is likely to get pretty aggressive being slightly cramped for space and territory.

Why, what are you wanting to hear? R. aculeatus gets big and aggressive, it probably won't work long term. A 3" specimen getting along with firefish is irrelevant when it'll eventually get 3x that size.
