Baby Humbug Damsels

[dodge250]

I have seen a group of humbugs for sale only 2cm long would these cause any probs in a reef tank as a last addition or is it hell no evil evil

not sure if the aggression develops w/age or not


What I'd be concerned about is when/if something dies and you want to add something else to the tank(after the damsel is established for awhile). I'm sure it wouldn't let anything new live very long.

Thanks for the help but I changed my mind and bought myself a shoal of chromis lol

much safer option,lol..although humbugs are stunning and one of my all time favourite marines still....best kept on their own or with bigger sturdy species however

My chromis when they go to the middle of the tank the royal grammas chase them #### same with flame angel what's going on i hope it settles down

Staking their claim and territory...my flame is a wee **** for this as well....should all settle down in a few days. If it doesn't , re arrange your rock work so as new territories will have to be made.
