Pleaee Help on Compatability

goldhopper · 05/19/2018, 01:55 PM

I have a 220 Gallon Mixed Reef Tank. Currently I have

1) Purple Tang
2) Blue Throat Trigger
3) Crosshatch Trigger
4) Convict Tang
5) Powder Tang
6) Diamond Goby
7) Three Clowns
8) Yellow Eye Tang
9) A bunch of snails, Clam, Spiny Sea Urchin
10) A Ribbon Eel who is new and will not eat

I would like to add the following

1) Six Line Wrasse
2) Foxface Rabbitfish
3) Harlequin Tusk
4) Blue Hippo Tang

Will these fish be compatible. I know there is some risk with the crustaceans. The aggressive fish is the Blue Powder Tang. Last time I added fish it took two days of him attacking a mirror but then I took the mirror away and everyone got along.

Thanks!

Well, first thing, the Tusk might destroy your snails and that clam. Also known to eat smaller fish when mature. I would take the Blue Hippo off the list. He will not make it with an aggressive, established PB. I would not add the foxface as you already have 4 fish that rely on the same food source (algae). 6-Line would be ok, but IMO there are a lot more beautiful wrasses out there than the 6-line.
