Upgrading Marine Tank! GSP + Tank Mates?

Post by Jkingsley3923 »

I know threads like this start every day, and I know GSPs tend to not like tankmates as a general statement. Mine is still small and he is only living with a false percola clown currently in a ten gallon. I am moving my 55 Gallon marine tank up to a 65 gallon wide that I found used at my LFS. At this point I have some Royal Damsels, a Royal Gramma, and a Green Wolf Eel or "Carpet Blenny" in that tank. This weekend as I am moving the tanks around I am going to try to place the GSP in with these others all in the 65. My real question is that, There are some fish that I'm looking forward to putting into this new tank, have any of you had experience with housing these or fish like these with GSP? I chose them due to their quick nature and adult size, possibly deterring any aggression from Moo my GSP.

Chocolate Tang (Mimic Orange Peel Tang)
Seagrass Wrasse
Bicolor Blenny
Striped Fang Blenny
Dwarf Flame Angel

any information or experience is greatly appreciated! Thank you!

All depends on the temperament of your puffer. I'd be sure there is tons of LR in there (2lbs/g) & lots of holes for the other fish to escape to.
