Pseudochromis

Woah I havent been on here for a long time. But my question is, what kind of Pseudochromis would i buy? since i have a bristle worm problem.

Well, the first solution to a bristleworm problem is to cut down on feeding...not necessarily increase the bioload. For one, it may not help your problem at all...or it may become your "pseudochromis" problem. If you try and combine this fish in a smaller tank with anything remotely similar - firefish, gramma, etc, you may have a war.
Bristleworms are not typically a problem - and if there are many, it is because they have enough food to sustain them. The solution is to cut out their food.

thank you. But in your opinon how often should I feed them?

 

[ophiura]

Well, what do you have? What type of food do you feed? How often and how much are you currently feeding? How are your nitrate levels?
