Tank Mates

Post by petebsbll »

Hey everyone,

It's been a while since I've been on here, im glad to see everything still up and running!

I have a 125 FOWLR and its housed a 12+ inch stars and stripes for close to 3 yrs. I like him a lot but I finally gave in and decided to make another addition to the aquarium. Currently in my QT I have a 6 inch Green Bird Wrasse. My question to you all is how do you think this will work out when I try to introduce the Wrasse? I would hate him to get ate, I plan on making plenty of small caves for him. Also does anyone have/had a green bird wrasse? I notice dark brown spots all on both sides of his body scattered from head to the far back end of his body and I can't figure out if it's natural color or scarring/fungus. It doesn't appear to be 3 dimensional at all.

Thanks a lot
