Need your inputs. Trying to add this pair to my 280G tank.
Wonder is it OK with these following fish:
Vlamingi tang
Naso tang
Blue throat trigger
Coral beauty
2 yellow tangs
3 green chromis
1 clown
1 6 spot goby

You'll be fine. I've got 4 wrasse's in with a mix of fish... no problems. Well, that is with the exception of my Mystery Wrasse chasing my Clown Wrasse (most recent addition), but they seem to be accepting each other more and more now. I think all fish like wrasses!! How could they not??? They're awesome!

+1 ... Never underestimate a wrasse's ability to find its way out.

Agreed! I've seen small McCosker's get 18" of linear air!

For real!???? I've got a 15" canopy which is WAY taller than I would like, but I was looking at what I thougt to be the bright side: No way could my wrasses jump out! I sure hope that doesn't happen. I feel so bad when I find a dried up carcass on the rug.

Linear is horizontal. 15" vertical you should be good!

not to be a dick or anything but doesnt linear mean in a straight line... whether it is any direction?

Actually you might be right. I am thinking "linear feet", which is horizontal in my head. :D

Phew! I was hoping that you had your terminology wrong. I'd be ****ED if something jumped out with this canopy.
