:notsure: :help: Hi I could use a little advice. I have a 40 long s/w reef tank with 60 lbs of live rock. One long tennical anemone, a pygme angle, greenhairy mushroom, some green and purple star polyps. which are all doing well . Everything has really grown since purchased. My ? is I just purchased 2 Aquacultured Percula Clowns, 1 Blackcap Basslet and a Fourline Wrasse. I've tried clowns and a royal gramma before and lost them. At the time my tank was new and really not settled yet. My pygmy angle survived and was the first fish I bought along with the 2 clowns. I also lost 2 cleaner shrimp but not at the same time. I wasn't sure who ate the first shrimp, but on the second one all I had in the tank at the time was the pygmy and found the head of the shrimp gone
Same as the first. Will these newly purchased fish get along together or do you think the pygmy will feel territorial since he has been alone in the tank for some time? My tank has been set up since june 04. thanks victory049

You can try taking your Pygmy out for a while and re-introducing it later. BTW, where did you buy your fish from?

I wouldn't say that your Pygmy is aggressive, I guess it's different for each individual fish. I've heard stories of Pygmies being aggressive and others about how they're very docile. I don't forsee a compatibility issue with your fish wish list. IF the Pygmy becomes aggressive, then re-introduce him to the tank (sorry, I skimmed through your first post and just assumed you said the Pygmy was aggressive).
