This guy came with a tank I recently purchased. His name is Bob. Apparently he killed the fishmates he was with, including a Tang, so they threw him in for free with a tank/sand/rock they no longer needed. I really just bought the tank for the sand, rocks and all the new lighting they had never set up. So instead of filling up the 55 gallon tank, I filled up a 30 gallon to save on space right now...and to keep the sand alive.
My ordeal...I don't like having just one fish in a tank. I'm scared to put him in my main tank because my fish are 1 sea hare (absolutely love this thing) 2 Tangs, 2 Angels, 2 clowns, a damsel, 2 blue chromis, 2 black chromis with yellow tails, some other type of chromis, mandarin Goby, Royal Gramma, huge brittle star, purple lobster, and a Fire Fish. Everyone gets along wonderfully (Except the brittle likes to pester the pistol shrimp at feeding time) so I definitely don't want to disrupt that. What on earth could I put with this guy that he absolutely would not want to mess with...and would fit in a 30 gallon tank?
I also will probably need something that won't eat starfish or snails so I have some algae eaters and sand sifters in there. I can avoid putting them in there though. I think right now there is one little crab and a couple of those itty bitty starfish.
Thanks,
Dena
