I want some purple Firefish.
BUT i have a 55gal reef.
I have a bi-colour Dottyback at the mo. And i definatly want 2 Ocelaris or Percula clownfish.
Do i have enough room for 2 Firefish? I know they like to shoal, but will they ok on their own?
They won't kamakazi from being lonely or something will they? :notsure:

If anybody is confused about what i'm saying, im just wondering if you can keep just 1 firefish and they'll be perfectly fine?
Has anyone had success with just 1 and not 2 or more??

You can keep just one or two without a problem.And yes,they do jump so make sure your tank is covered.Keep an eye on that bicolor,inch for inch one of the most aggressive little fish towards newcomers.

I made an order from this website a while back, and, in order to boost the order to the $79, I added a blue chromis. He was fine by himself. Also, IMO one more firefish won't up your bioload that much.
