i love my box...so cute n dumb looking. initially it got bullied by my 2 damsels by pushing it with their tails :blink: . the scene is cute cos the box just 'float away' n carried on with his life as thou not affecting it much. after 2-3 days they accept him as a member n i nv c them disturbing it animore.( maybe he had gone tru the 'ring of fire'). lastly my box did not disturb ani of my corals, except pecking on rocks n blowing the sand for food.

cheers

believe less then 50% of wat ppl tell u n bring it up tp 99% by confirming it urself

DUN try putting the two different types of dragonets!!! It is disastrous!!! The dotted ones are usually fiercer than the other type.  :erm:

Decide on one type only and if you want two, must al least get a pair. Remember the pair has a longer thread on his dorsal fin.

I meant, if you really wan to get two, get a paired set and the male is the one a longer thread on his dorsal...Sorry...wasn't thinking straight... :(

Thanks AIR,

:D Feel so much better now.. I think i will try to keep it, since most of everyone's comments are contradicting. I will keep it and get my own experience. Hope the fishies in my combo will get along with each other. :rolleyes:

You might want to consider carefully about the dottybacks...

My dottyback was a monster that ate cleaner shrimp eyes...and killed any docile fish...

You might want to consider adding it last...or go for the orchid dottyback..one of the most docile dottybacks. :D

Always something more important than fish.
