I recently got a purple fire fish, and I heard prior that they were very hardy, and they are, I was very surprised how fast he got used to the tank, the main thing is just having a cave or something that he can bolt to (and that isn’t occupied by another fish) if he gets scared and to help him acclimate and reduce stress, I had a really large shell, and that’s his home for the night, and he has shown very little signs of stress

This helped me figure out what I want in my 32 gallon gonna go clown fish and purple fire fish and yellow goby

Love my firefishes! I have a red and a purple firefish in my 27gallon tank and they are great.......just undecided what else I really want to put in too. But they are very timid.

AWESOME!

@@supriyajha5933 not an expert... but no ;) Unless you have a massive tank I would only ever get 1 from the basslet / grouper / perch sort of group (so that covers them). If you already have an orchid dottyback just stick with that... it's a great fish (I like them better than the gramma by a small margin but I think they are more aggressive). If you want yellow (in a small tank) add in a yellow coris wrasse - halichores chrysus (my spelling will be wrong;)

Yo! New to the channel and i was wondering about keeping adequate flow in my saltwater 30gallon.. What size power head is ok and or way toooo much. I figure the 2 power heads i have now are extreme overkill. 800gph. Would those be okay for a 90 plus gallon tank? Let me know what you think!

This is great - Maybe do one for a 75 gallon so I can get ideas for my new build ;)

Look for Fairy and Flashers specifically. They're (typically) extremely reef-safe, with the exception that some may nip at clam mantles, and can easily be kept in harems in tanks. Carpenters wrasse Lubbocks fairy wrasse Scott's fairy wrasse Hawaiian Flame wrasse Ruby Head fairy wrasse Blue Throat Fairy wrasse Redfin wrasse Exquisite Fairy wrasse Naokos fairy wrasse Yellowfin flasher wrasse Blue flasher wrasse Pintail fairy wrasse Longfin fairy wrasse Hooded fairy wrasse etc

Good list! I have a 32 gallon tank that I’ve had for about 3 months, and I love my yellow watchman goby! I showed my mom the clip of you saying “old grumpy face” because she actually named it grumpy. I also have a ruby red scooter Blenny, I don’t think they are very hard to care for, I put some copepods in and he’s thriving, and I’m gonna try and get him to eat prepared food. But also the ruby red scooters only get about 2.5 inches which is good, but they are absolutely stunning

What do you mean by site oriented fish?

The dragonet is a beautiful fish. I had a green mandrian dragonet I loved. He sadly passed when we had our ich outbreak a couple months back. Now that the Tank has been treated and cleared without an ich problem I am looking into populating the tank with tiger pods and then getting another one of these beautiful fish. It’s one of my favorite fish.

I’ve watched a lot of your videos to help out my process of picking and introducing new life to my tanks. You’ve done an amazing job and I’m so grateful you’ve set up videos to help teach what you know. You’re an inspiration. I’ve never been so happy with my tanks.

It just means they rely mostly on their eyes/vision more than any other of its senses. Kind of the opposite of let’s say a catfish that uses its whiskers to /feel around and doesn’t have good eyesight.
