Would she be okay?

[shaunalynna]

I was thinking about adding my horse to my 28gal since she now has no partner since we lost her mate last night. All that is currently in the 29 is my 2 clowns, mandarin, 6 line wrasse and 2 emeralds. I know I would have to carefully watch my clowns for safety but she should be okay with them and my mandarin if an eye is kept on them? We are thinking about getting rid of me emeralds and wrasse "if I do this" because one of the two have been eating creatures in my tank and I am done loosing everyone. Anyhow let me know what thoughts you have on this. I would need to add corals for her cause all there is right now is rock and small frags, plenty of copepods though!

It may stress her out moving tanks after she just lost her mate.Plus if the male had a disease of some sort she may have it and it could spread to the new tank you want to put her in.
If you did choose to do this, deff. find another tank for the emerald and 6 line.I would be worried about the 2 clowns too.Unless they are not too aggressive.
Just my thoughts.Again very sorry for your loss

I would not move her!! All the rest of the fish would be far to much stress for her.

agree with the both of you...I am not 100% thinking straight with everything that has happened recently...Cherish, is fine where she is and best left there at least for a while anyhow and this way I can keep an eye on her constantly as well for illness!
