If you had your choice/ gramma or 6 line?

[ant]

If you had your choice between the Royal blue gramma or the 6 line wrass what would it be and why?
Thanks, Ant.

IMO I like the 6 lines. I would get a pair (2) :yes:

 

[ophiura]

I like them both, but I prefer the sixline. I do not recommend a pair. They may not get along (same with gramma's). My sixline flares at his own reflection in the glass.

Never had one always wanted one. Lfs never had them when I went to buy one. But 6 line would be my choise

 

[ant]

Great!! Thanks everyone. Six line it is. :joy: It was so hard for me to decide.

Ant, your making a great choice. I love my 6 line. It found a hole in one of the rocks and curls itself up evey night in it unless the emerald gets there first that is.

i know 6 lines will eat bristle worms
not sure about royal gramma...

 

[ant]

That's great to hear everyone! I'm excited to get him/her now. Thanks! :jumping: Ant.

what's so great about the 6 line wrasse. i've never had one before but a lot of people like them. they don't look like anything special and they sure aren't that colorful. please enlighten me.

6-lines are colorful. Mine has colors ranging from pink to orange to green and blue. I love my sixline.. I had a gramma when I first started up the tank and they have nice colors as well but I love my 6-lines personality.

 

[who dey]

i don't like decisions. i'd gettem both :jumping:

 

[ant]

That's funny Who Dey! I'd love to get both except I'm trying to respect the space available and fish I have and this will be my last fish to add. Thus the inquiry.

 

[angelofish]

I have both and I like my Gramma better. Its cool to watch him defend his hole. My 6line ate all my mini-stars and a good amount of my pods.

 

[ant]

Angelofish,
I didn't know they ate other stuff besides worms. Interesting. Aren't 6 lines reef safe? :notsure:

 

[angelofish]

They are reef safe. Supposedly they eat pyramid snails,bristle worms, pods and mini-stars. I saw him eat a starfish once.Now I have none.I also dont see as many worms or pods. All mine does is hunt in and out of cracks and spaces between rocks.

 

[puffer32]

Can't both fish be kept in same tank? I was hoping to get both :thinking:

 

[ant]

Puffer32,
Yes, both fish can be kept in the same tank but I don't have room for both in my tank with my other fish so I must pick one. Ant.

My vote is for the gramma. Personally I think its a prttier fish, and I have more natural foods for the other finicky fish.

my 6 line is awesome, would highly recommend....very active, very cool to watch go sliding between all the rocks and spaces, they are fast, gorgeous colors and he is buds with my maroon pair. very likeable and fun fish...here is a pic.
