Adding a firefish to my tank?

[Xandernfs]

I was wondering if it would be okay to add a firefish with my other livestock. It includes a green clown goby, tail spot blenny, a six line wrasse, i also have a peppermint and cleaner shrimp. I have a dersa and planning on getting a crocea clam too. All my perameters are 0 (NH3, NO2, & NO3) Just wanting your thoughts.

Thanks

A firefish would be fine with those other inhabitants.

Should i consider this my last addition (fish wise)?

Oh, and its a 20H

Pick what kind of firefish you want carefully. You only get one...

Personally, I wish I had bought the purple dude.

I've read that the regulars are more personable.....

Firefish are excellent jumpers ! Is your tank covered?

You have all pretty much bottom dwellers & plan to add another one?

Firefish r cool, but might have real estate problems in a 20 with the blenny, wrasse & possibly goby.

Personally, I'd get something else to mix it up. Perhaps a royal gramma, clown or something else that will swim the entire tank.

I have a MH, so no top. . . . . .

You can fit an egg crate tile on your tank to help!You know ,those plastic grids you see covering ceiling lighting in drop ceilings!

No eggcrate/top. He'll cast shadows with the MH. Besides, my firefish hasn't jumped in 2 yrs with an open top.

you could put plexi glass sides around the tank so he mite jump out of the water but not make it out of the tank

[kingfisher62]

Or you could just staple the fish to a rock................ just kidding!
I don't need any animal activist calling me!

Well, i'm not looking for a clown or a royal grama. My tail spot has been out a lot more since the i got the 6 line. But my clown goby is a pretty big hermit. . . . . .i'm looking for something that swims &/or is out in the open a lot.

stay away from the firefish. The sixline will pick on it for sure. I would not add anymore fish.
