Purple tile fish

T206 · 11/27/2015, 10:19 PM

Will a purple tile fish be ok with two small azure damsels? It's a 70 gallon tank with plenty of room. Only have a long nose hawkfish, pistol shrimp and orange spot goby in there now (besides the damsels).

I was thinking about adding a bristle or timini tang as well.

The tile fish should be fine. Just make sure every opening above the tank is covered, they are notorious jumpers.

Thanks for the info. Do you know anything about keeping flashing tilefish? Seems like they are fairly uncommon and notoriously difficult to keep...
