I have considered below fishes.
hawkfish
Dwarf angel ( either Coral beauty or Cherub)
Bangii cardinal
however, I understand hawkfish can/will kill my shrimp goby and may nip on corals, Dwarf angels are also aggressive and may pick on corals especially LPSs. I think Bangii cardinals are too small ( i still like them).
What you guys think?? I have LPSs in my tank ( Hammer, RBTA, Zoas, Acans) and want to add frogspawn or Anamone and possibly a small clam in the future.
Any suggestion is greatly appriciated  |
I have an RSM 130 as well. My newest addition was Stu, the sapphire (springer's) damsel. Despite being a damsel, he isn't aggressive towards my other fish, aside from his strut when they get close to his caves, but he has never chased anyone away. It's all just show. From my research, sapphire damsels are the most passive of the damsels. He got beat up a bit when he was first put in the DT, part of his tail was ripped, but it healed quickly and there have been no more injuries since.
I got him when he was super duper small, and hes grown quite a bit, but has kept his temperment. It's also neat to see them change colour. When they are stressed or hiding (like when you first introduce them to the tank/QT) they will turn all black, then instantly go back to the blue/black chequered look when they are feeling safe.
He's hard to photograph since hes quite active, and the photo doesn't near capture the brightness of his blue colour, but this is he
My stocking list:
2 black clowns
1 purple firefish
1 yellow watchman goby (he is probably the most aggressive in my tank)
and the sapphire damsel
I've got a mixed reef with an RBTA.
