Hi everyone:
Here I am again with a rather stupid question but that need some kind of feedback. I know this post might belong to the agressive setups section but I did post it there and had no responses so far. I also figured that some of my fish are not really aggressive so they can also fit here. I upgraded my tank from a 180 gallon to a 225. I got rid of some fish that were getting too big and shuffled around others so as of now the list of habitants in my 225 is as follows:
Male Scribbled Angel (about 6.5 inches long)
Black Tang (about 7 inches long)
Panther Grouper (about 6 inches long)
Harlequin Tusk (about 5 inches long)
Majestic/Threadfin Snapper (about 5 inches long)
Clown Trigger (about 4.5 inches long)
I am planning on adding a few more large pieces of rock to add more hiding places and I also wanted to add the following:
Broomtail Wrasse (about 6 inches long)
2 Large Semilarvatus Butterflies (about 6 inches diameter )
My question is if any of the "new" fish could get killed/attacked/harrassed. I know there is always the typical hazing when new fish are introduced but I am rather concerned about the butterflies. They are big, the biggest I have seen so far and the 2 little ones I have in another tank are pretty aggressive for a butterfly, but I am not sure if they could hold their own. None of my fish are aggressive towards each other except for the occassional chasing that happens about once a week for about 2 seconds and usually involve either the trigger or the tusk chasing the snapper.
Any thoughts on who should I leave and who should I buy. The people at the store gave me mixed reviews and I simply wanted to ask a broader audience of experts.
Thanks for your time,
Ivan
