Ive got them and i have no plans on getting rid of them so thats my delema i dont recomend them in a 75 gallon together that being said i do have intentions on upgrading when the right deal falls in my lap. for now they cohabitate.
the yellow was added first and became to dominate the larger purple was added as a non dominant but stronger fish so he was able to defend himself. right now id say the purple has taken the dominant role but the yellow is not easily pushed aside. right now like ive said they have agreed to cohabitat but they do not "Enjoy" each other. their bouts of agression are limited to the same types of displays shown when a chromi enters the clownfishes territory.

ohhh you wre refering to the Live rock LOL sorry
i thought you thought i was using fake corals LOL
sorry
the Rock was sold as gap island rock. really branchy and size for size when wieghed with a piece of marshall or figi of the same size it is about half of the weight so you can fill a tank up with less rock.
i really like the look of this rock.
