Re: hi to all #11
The Humbugs are the ones that are boisterous, the yellow tail blues and the electric blues ARE NOT aggresive and are easy to keep. Butterflies are reef foragers, but don't really do too much damage to be honest

Re: hi to all #13
Good for you the little green/blue chromis are nice and easy too. Add a few at a time so the system adjusts steadily ok. One thing I can promise you - the sixline wrasse and cleaner wrasse are no threat to anything, they are really peaceful community fish in my experience.

Re: hi to all #14
Yep, The six line wrasse is probably my current fave.
Another really pretty fish is the firefish, i have a few and they make an impressive display together.

Re: hi to all #16
With the firefish, doesn't one pick on the others? I read an article in pfk saying to only keep one of each species and my local shop has a group which has alot of shredded fins. Or is this only if you keep 2 together rather than a big group?

Re: hi to all #17
Leave it a while before you add a blenny. I added a bleeny in the first few weeks when our tank was reading ok but he died for no apparent reason after only a few weeks? May be they are sensitive? They are great though and I will be getting another one or two soon.
