I had both a regular and a purple firefish in my 75g reef before my house caught fire. A week after putting them both in, they formed a bond. They were inseparable. If one turned right, so did the other. The seemed to do best that way as opposed to when the regular one was by himself. just a side note.

As already mentioned, make sure you have no openings at the top of the tank. I had just a 2 inch by 8 inch slot at the back of my canopy where the overflow tube went thru and Richard managed to find it and jumped. I tried to convince myself that there was no way he could have found that opening and that he just died and the crabs got him..... Found his little dried up carcas under the sump about a month later!
