Even though he does come out to eat, I hate it that he will rarely leave his hole. How long should this acclimation take before he starts to explore?

I haven't even heard of a false perc growing that large before I read this thread.

My 4 stripe (before I got rid of him) was very peaceful as was my yellowtail. But on the contrary, my other former damsels, 2 blues and a yellow, were always mean and would bite the fins of my firefish. This really p--- me off!:mad:

I lucked out, I picked to firefish and they are a mated pair.:)

But otherwise he will hide under my LR or in crevices in the rock. I have seen no aggression between him and my other fish.

From what I heard they deliver a lethal sting if not given immediate medical attention. :eek:

False Percs!:D

Like Terminus said, not all stores are bad. My LFS is very helpful and gives the same information that I would receive in one of these forums. The owners are very respectable people and take pride in knowing that not everytime a person walks through the door, that it equals a sale. This is...

I am thinking of getting one soon, after I take out my last damsel.

It also depends on the size of your cleanup crew.

I had 3 and they schooled. From 2 or more, green chromis seem to shoal, if you want you can have 5 but first consider your fish you have now, stocking level, and that a hierarchy does establish between even the peaceful green chromis. It will just be for dominance and probably will not be...

I would recommend a tang or angel as your main attraction.
