puntific Posted May 16, 2009 Share Posted May 16, 2009 My tank is 100 gal and I have the following 1. purple tang 2. pair of gold striped maroon clownfish 3. percula clownfish 4. six line wrass 5. two cleaner shrimp My kids are tired of me adding corals and want to see more fish. I am tired of buying fish that don't do well. I'm looking for suggestions of fish that would mix with mine that have good survival rates.

finch6013 Posted May 16, 2009 Share Posted May 16, 2009 I have two damsels you can have if you catch them. good luck with that. If you like damsels they are hardy but I wouln't suggest them. They are called evil damsels for a reason. Maybe a dwarf angel of some type. Like a coral beauty or a flame angel. They are hardy from my experience with a coral beauty and they are very nice looking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
defigart Posted May 16, 2009 Share Posted May 16, 2009 If you can feed often enough, a few Anthias may look good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Posted May 16, 2009 Share Posted May 16, 2009 Chromis? Maybe 5 or 7 Chromis? Enough to form a shoal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL, I have a Yellowtail Damsel here that gets its kicks picking up rocks and throwing them at the other fish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coralreefer Posted May 16, 2009 Share Posted May 16, 2009 1) Potter's angel or flame angel or Coral Beauty 2) Anthias 3) Powder Blue Tang, Yellow tang or Sohal tang or Blue Hippo tang 4) Could be chancey with corals but you could try larger angels Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

puntific Posted May 17, 2009 Author Share Posted May 17, 2009 Some good suggestions. A couple of questions: 1. Another Tang? I'm tired of them dying when I move them into my tank! 2. Anthias sound good, but I'm worried about vacation when they only get fed every other day. 3. Do Lawnmower Blennies really eat hair algae? 4. How many Dottybacks could I keep? Thanks, Scott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fpd4308 Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 I think every tank needs a Lawnmower Blenny. Mine eats just about any kind of algae but he seems to prefer to brown stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
