Carmen, if you have a 50g + tank you will probably not have a big problem. The fish will pick out and defend a territory but there is lots of room for others. In a smaller tank it wouldn't be a good idea.

REALLY - I have a 72 with plenty of "hiding" spots and would love to keep him. Do you think it's worth a try?
Anyone have a royal dottyback in a 72G tank?
