GSP, Tomato Clown, & YT Damsel

Post by BeachORama »

... in a 40 gallon breeder?

Would this be too cramped?

GSP is now pushing 4 inches.

(40 breeder = 45 gallons actually.)

Thanks!

Very much so, not sure about the damsel but the tomato and GSP will get to 6" so with both of them a 4' tank would be ideal. A 55 would even be a little cramped if your gonna have alot of live rock.

Ah, thanks Bcummings!

I figured it may be too much... guess he's on his own :( (until the next tank upgrade.)

Thanks for the check... makes the decision easy that way.

I'm sure he'd be happier on his own anyway. :)

Kind of sounds like my mix. I have a puffer, tomato, and a yellow tail. Mine are in a 150 tho...

Sounds perfect for a a 55g but remember damsals like groups of 3 or more & can be quite territorial. I find the yellowtails to be the nicest.

my yellowtail is the nicest damsel i have owned. my yellowbelly will chase him, yellowtail flares up his top fin, the other will back off even though hes about 1/2 inch, and he goes back to his business lol
