+mcallahan Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 Well, for some reason, I lost all my clown fish. They all just stopped eating, got skinny and disappeared. No ick, no velvet, no fin rot, nothing. Sucks. So in my 90g I now have: - purple tang - Bengai cardinal - 6 line wrasse - chromis This weekend i'll pick up a pair of clowns and a yellow watchman goby/pistol shrimp pair I'm looking for suggestions for fish that'd make my tank well rounded - some swimmers, perchers, sand sifters, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dustint21 Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 Maybe a trio of Anthias? Also with all of the nice acans you have in your tank I would strongly advise that you DO NOT put any sandsifters in your tank!!! I have had them and they are a PITA!!! They keep the sand looking great, but they cover EVERYTHING in sand. Ive had them completely burry acans overnight and losed them.

chrisfowler99 Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 My diamond goby is a great sand sifter, but he covers everything that's in the sand. If you've got your acans on the sand I really wouldn't recommend one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you've got your acans on the sand I really wouldn't recommend one. Hmm...my pink spot would make mounds, but i think he got eaten before I had any acans. I think I'll be safe with a yellow watchman...I had one in my 20g and he didn't sift...just sat there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dustint21 Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 Yellow watchman is a great fish! They are not sandsifters but they do pair well with pistol shrimp. O and another fish thought.... how about other tangs??? I really like the PBT and the gold rim tangs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+mcallahan Posted July 3, 2009 Author Share Posted July 3, 2009 My purple tang is insecure. He bullies anything that looks anything like him until the fish turns on him, then he runs away. He's scared of my Bengai cardinal! 1 tang is good for me. I don't want to risk the fights. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
