After seeing how good the first one does in the tank I got a second.

The irst pic is of the one I already have. It eats frozen with the rest of the fish. I saw the second one picking from the floor. It was following the motions of the first.

No, not at all.

I also have a Hawaiian Golden Dwarf, bluejaw trigger (male), Chevron Tang, Marine Betta, Clown Gobbie, bicolor bleny, two yellow tail damsels and a lyrtail anthias.

Is your Potter's typically aggressive with new additions - but just not these (perhaps because it's wise enough to stay away from those spines)?

Never had a problem. The potters likes to hide in the same rockwork that the dwarf moray does, and he has never tried to nip at any of the dawf lions.

I'm happy to say that they both eat frozen till their bellies are fat.

I have my return gated down. I can reduce/increase flow as I choose.
