I want to add another fish but....
I have a Yellow Tang and Cinnamon Clownfish that are both Extremely aggressive. The tang bullies the clown and the clown bullies my 3 chromis'. I added them clown, chromis', tang.
Any suggestions on what would be able to withstand these two terrors? My setup is in signature. I would be content with just keeping what I have. Would a mandarin dragonet be in trouble with these two? I have 100lbs of live rock in my display and a fuge in my sump. Maybe a psuedo/dottyback? TIA Brad |

I wouldnt add a mandy, they are quite peaceful and will most likely get bullied.
a psuedo/ dottyback would be fine. IMO I would add either a purple stripe or bi color. you might also want to increase the chromis grouping. |

As long as you have a good pod population if your fuge I would go with the Mandarin. I've had mine for five years and she is one of the nicest fish I own...No one ever bothers her and she never bothers anyone else. Just make sure you have live food for it because it will starve to death in a matter of days.

I've heard a few stories about mandarins being eaten by anemones, but I think most of them were condylactis or haddoni.
