exquisite wrasse in 30g tank?

sir_dudeguy · 01/28/2007, 09:30 PM

ok i'm kinda fed up w/posting questions about these wrasses by now

however a local guy is doing a group buy from some supplier or whatever and exquisite wrasses are only 30 bucks (as opposed to 60 normally i believe) and my younger brother keeps buggin me about why cant he get one

For sure we are getting a small ocellaris clown. He had a pair and one jumped, so we're getting that for sure (its only 6 bucks). Normally i really dont like adding more than one fish in such a small tank, and i'm not even sure an exquisite wrasse even fits in a 30, but there were 2 clowns before and the one jumped about 2 days ago...so really it would just be like adding one fish wouldnt it? (as far as bioload goes)

My other concern is that there is already a CB angel in there. I keep tellin him its probably already crowded with three fish (coral beauty, and 2 false perc clowns).

So if this wrasse even fits this tank...do i already have too many fish or do you think i could get by? I do have a skimmer way overrated for this tank (remora) and it pulls out crazy nasty stuff so i know its really good. So that might help a bit.

What do you think?
