He (I’m guessing gender in accordance with the amount of dorsal areas) has not yet seemed to be really aggressive at all, staying next to my banded goby of many days
Wrasse type/safety and carpet anemone move Hello again Anthony Sorry for the delay in getting back to you, I’ve had a minor op on my foot and only just come back to work. In my last e-mail I was asking about a Lawnmower Blenny and the fish it would have to live with in my two tanks, the gist of the e-mail and my return response is this: [regarding algae control] << I know about the skimming but I have a problem in getting a hang on type to fit my tank which has glass ledges 6" wide each end as well as front and back ledges of 2" plus no room for a sump! Else, you can use a sump model and pump from the display to an upstream vessel like a refugium with a skimmer and them let the water overflow back down to the display> I have an adapted sea clone that came with the tank (2nd hand) and the glass was broken at the top to accommodate the SC.
I plan to get a new tank eventually but not yet. The other tank is newish but not reef ready and I bought a prism skimmer for 140 pounds sterling before I found your site! I do have concern that the Green Bird (? After >that, I have seen them fed 4″ crayfish which they smash to pieces >off the rocks. Do consider removing in time. Kindly, Anthony> << I think my Wrasse is a male Thalassoma lunare , mainly green with slight flecks of blue on the body and blue/red markings on his face, he also has a yellow tail. He is very active, nosey and a fast swimmer but I haven't seen him be aggressive towards anything else in the tank.
Short of substitution the brand new wrasse that have a smaller sized version or a good different seafood completely, what do you highly recommend I really do to tame which visible broadening possibility?
Try the guy adult at seven” and can the guy will always be a good chap in my own container? Lunare wrasses are splendidly hardy and beautiful fishes however the try notoriously aggressive. I’ve seen specimens more 30cm much time> I’m very partial to him because of their reputation! We label Nasos “Naso” otherwise “lipstick” tang> exploit seems identical to good Acanthurus Lineatus (Pajama doctor) oh precious! Very easy to offer however, tough to keep real time to your a captive eating plan for almost all. Along with requires high a lot of time tanks having quite strong liquid way and you will they may be a little competitive> Whenever i have your attract may i ask about my personal Carpet anemone’s lso are property? I’d to utilize specific stress to force him to let wade however, Really don’t consider I broken him in any way with the exception of stress.
What should I do if anything? If it continues for weeks, consider that more light or water flow may be needed> How can you move a carpet without hurting/stressing him ? Also I bought 1 marine white and 1 actinic fluorescent lights for him but am wondering if this is enough light even though it is a small tank. Jenny Canary Wrasse Woes Bob (Steve),
