The guy (I am guessing gender according to the quantity of dorsal places) have not seemed to be most aggressive whatsoever, sticking next to my personal 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 replacing the latest wrasse which have a smaller version otherwise an excellent additional fish totally, exactly what do you suggest I do so you can acquire which obvious expanding menace?
Try he mature at the eight” and will the guy are an effective guy in my own container? Lunare wrasses is actually magnificently sturdy and delightful fishes but the try infamously competitive. I’ve seen specimens more 30cm a lot of time> I am really partial to him due to his reputation! I call Nasos “Naso” otherwise “lipstick” tang> mine seems just like a great Acanthurus Lineatus (Pajama doctor) oh beloved! Very easy to feed but hard to remain alive with the a captive diet plan for the majority. As well as means higher long tanks with very strong drinking water path and you may they can be quite competitive> While i have your focus can i enquire about my Carpeting anemone’s re construction? I experienced to utilize certain tension to make him to let wade however, Really don’t consider We busted him at all apart from be concerned.
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),
