Reef Safe Fish

[yazid]

I would like to gather as much information on proven reef safe fish.

If everyone could list it out, it will be a useful information.

With pictures would be great.

My favourite reef safe fish would be the Hippo Tang.

Yazid,

Add another thread started by AT previously about non reefsafe fishes here....

Think will work together in helping reefers identify the reef safe and not so reef safe specimens ......

Clown fishes are all reef safe.

All tangs are.

Damsels too.

but my clownfish has knocked out the crown of my featherduster...TWICE

saw it pecking and whacking it.....

just a point to consider...

Sorry for invading this thread... but on that topic, what do you do when the crown of your feather duster worm gets knocked/plucked out?? I just noticed one of mine on the sea bed

eprouve,

Is it still in the tube? If it is, just stick it somewhere between the rocks or a hole and it will attach itself quickly. If it is out of the tube, it might be dead. If it isn't, find a nice sheltered hole or somewhere secure for it to make a new tube. A small diameter pvc with one endcap can be used too.

jinners,

My clownfish coexist with the tubeworm without any problems.

Its not dead. Still wriggling about. Ok, it will make a new tube eh? *phew*

Can the tube make a new feather duster?

Tangs also eat most Macro Algae....

Foxface loves to eat purple mushroom. It does not take the blue though. It also eat Macro Algae.

Luckily we can house the Macro Algae in the refugium. But if you need it in your main tank, I guess this fish should be out.

Firefish are good. Damsels will stake out a territory and sometimes clean it by throwing things it doesn't like somewhere else. Dwarf wrasses like shrimp to eat.

if the entire worm is out and wriggling, find it a PVC tube to grow in.. but if left alone without fishes pecking on it, it will create its own tube.. but takes a while, if it is just the crown, then dun worry, the worm inside the tube will grow another set of crown..
