Nothing . In fact you should probably think about getting rid of the coral cats and the grouper . They will out grow your tank, just one of them is more than you should have let alone all three . But I assume you know this already .

I am wondering if this thread is a joke actually. If it isn't I apologize. I am not trying to be mean. All of these fish are really inappropriate for this tank except the lion and a 75 is pushing it a bit if you have a volitan. please take these fish back very soon and get some fish more appropriate to your tank, like maybe a tang and an angel or something.

I wouldn't recommend a tang or an angel, the OP will probably get the 2 biggest ones he finds.

I am going to assume that this post is legitimate and that the OP may not be aware of the size that these fish become. As of right now he is looking at their current size so it probably looks as though there is plenty of room in the tank. Stung, what kind of coral cats do you have? Are you talking about sharks or the small black catfish with white lines?

Should be interesting to see what he says. Defintely could go either way Coral cat sharks or coral catfish (Plotosus lineatus
). Assuming he's referring to catsharks, but says they're really small, but I've never seen 'really small' coral catshark, they've always been around a foot long.

No way buddy. The sharks need to be moved asap. He will be able to find a better home for them now if they are small and eating. The lion is actually not a horrible fish to have in a 75 without many other fish for the longest period. Personally this thread is a joke IMO. But for future readers.

The OP never came back on to say if these were coral cat sharks or coral catfish... Plotosus lineatus

the only thing i think he needs to buy next is a larger tank if he wants to keep everything as it grows. Some people do change fish out as they grow though(?) never really understood that.
