    help with a psychotic purple tang

    I would take him back to the store and spend the store credit on some more compatible fish or find something super aggressive that will stand up for itself better. That is kind of mean though. I would take it back.

    What do you think about s-e-x education being taught in the classroom?

    Wow, I wonder what this thread is doing here?? Was someone watching their fish mating?? Anyway, let me give some personal testament. I had my first se- education class in 5th grade. It was the basics. Condoms, contraceptives, and so forth. Then again in a different school district I had in 9th...

    So maybe a million was a bit overkill

    So it sounds like they do needs to be in shallow water with a lot of food available. The temp could be an issue as well. In either case, I won't be adding them to my tank. Bummer to hear though.

    foxface

    it could be discoloration from stress. i don't know if the fox does this for sure but a lot of fish do. i believe they have scales though. has there been any problem with your water parameters?

    cuc with puffers??

    okay so not more than one per tank.....got it. i will only keep a dogface then. maybe i will put some large snails in there first and hope they get big enough that they are not appetizing looking.....or is that like saying a big juicy steak doesn't look good to me??

    cuc with puffers??

    okay so the key would be to keep them well fed then. i guess i won't worry until they start getting picked off and i won't keep anything really expensive...lol. one other question then, can you keep two puffers together? i had the porky in mind and the dogface.

    the two of these together???

    yeah the koran are absolutely amazing. that bellus is pretty too. so you think that i could put a coral beauty with a koran if i add the koran later? i definitely do not want to overload my tank. i probably wouldn't do too many others together. i have been thinking about some smaller colorful...

    cuc with puffers??

    so a bunch of large hermit crabs? anything else? i may try a cc starfish and make sure that he is in there a while before i add the puffer. which one is going do the best with those? i like the dogface, golden and the striped.

    the two of these together???

    sorry for not clarifying. i know what the coral beauty looks like but what does that bellus look like? they don't have one of those here on this site. another angels i like are the flame, flameback and koran angels. i am not extremely interested in any others that i have seen so far.

    cuc with puffers??

    I am going to have a dogface and a tusk in my 150 gal. is there anything that i can put into the tank that will clean up the bottom that they won't eat?? i know they go after crustaceans mostly so what other things don't they eat that are good for doing some tank maintenance?
