In the fish discussion forum I posted for more info on this fish. SOmeone recommnded they be kept in groups of 3 or more.. For those of you who have this fish DO you keep it as a single fish or a group?
thanks

i have 1 banner , Heniochous. if thats what your talking about, and they get pretty big, so i wouldnt think you would keep them in groups at all unless you have a mamoth tank. just my opinon. Todd

im sure that you can keep just one of the banners with no problem. now i have read on the moorish idol that you should keep them in groups. but you would still need a large tank for a group of either.

yes its the Heniochous that I am talking about. I know they get big thats why I was suprised to hear they should be kept in groups. In my 125 If I had 2 or 3 I would have to drasticly change my stocking list to accomidate them.. More likely I just wouldnt get it. Im no where near daring enough to try a morish idol... They seem pretty impossible to keep. Do you guys have any agressivness with your Heniochous?
current fish:
1 perc clown
1 hippo tang
4 green chromis

how i said earlier they do best in groups of 3 or more but u can get away with keeping one byitself but i wouldnt do that
blemmy guy keeps only one because he wants to be a rebell

do I add 1 or 2 banners to the mix? will my 125 be able to support 2 along with my other fish and planned stocking list?
