I am planning on re-aquascaping my display this weekend to allow for more open swimming area. I will be removing a few fish from my display so that I can reintroduce shrimp into my tank. I was hoping for some opinions on what I should remove to help assure that the new shrimp won’t just become food. Below is a current fish stock list with the mostly likely to go up top.
2 @ Flame Hawkfish
6 @ Engineer (Convict) Goby
3 @ Yellow Spotted Anthias
2 @ Crosshatch Trigger
1 @ Mystery Wrasse
1 @ Red Margin Fairy Wrasse
1 @ Blue Tang
1 @ Naso Tang
1 @ Sailfin Tang
1 @ Copperband Butterflyfish
Hey Mark, damn were everywhere LOL
ummm I am guessing the Hawkfish have to go, the Engineer Goby should be fine, mine never bothered the shrimps neither did the Anthias, I am problably the worst person to give advice about removing fish... I just wont, but the Flames are the only ones I would have to remove if keeping shrimp or any other inverts I guess.
how does the copperband behave with the corals and anemone(s)? I have been thinking of getting one but just afraid it may turn into a bad citizen.
In any case lmk if and what you decide to remove, I'll be interested in the Mystery and the Anthias, but if it was me I'll keep them, send me a pm on the other, site, I never come here since there is not much activity just happen to come here today!
