What fish to get

bwayne315 · 03/08/2006, 09:22 AM

Well, I am upgrading tanks again. I just got a 140 gal 3'x3'x2'.
Currently I have a 125 gal, and I have a very large maroon clown,
a fiji devil damsel, and a domino damsel. I have had the devil
damsel for about 5yrs, and I have had the domino damsel a couple of years. Anyways I want to get rid of the damsels, because they are very aggressive.

Any new fish that I have tried to add, have been picked on by the damsels, and have died. I am going to get rid of the damsels and get some peaceful fish. Anyways does anyone have any suggestions?

I was thinking of adding a tang, a fairy wrass, and maybee some
cromis.

Thanks
B.

Your Maroon clown also may have issues with new tank mates. Try to keep maroon in 125 until you have all the other fish in your 140.
If possible.
Kole tangs, basslets, wrasses, shrimp gobies, would all be great choices.

A yellow and hippo tang wouold make great additions to the 140, good choice on getting rid of the damsels.
