It's killing me...

I just can't wait to put something else into my tank but I know I can't because of what happened with my sixline... I know I said I wouldn't be adding anything more to the tank but do think when the time is here maybe adding a royal gramma? In advance can you tell me if these guys swim up holes in live rock or anything wild and out of the ordinary?

What's your opinion on the waiting time?

BTW, my clowns are doing great!

Keep the clowns alive for another month.

Then get another 6-line. This time spend 3hrs acclimating him with the lights off and when you let him go-- LEAVE HIM THE HELL ALONE.

He'll come out when he's hungry.

Re: It's killing me...

what you consider wild and out of the ordinary, is normal for a 6 line

Just remember, go slow. You will enjoy it more and the tank will do better.
