does anybody have one of these i fell in love with it at the fish store yesterday, and i cant seem to find to much info on them ive got a eibli angel and a black cap basslet in a 55g reef
 
Yes a very nice fish...
They do grow to quite a large size 24cm, they will eat shrimps and snails, not regarded as reef safe! They can clean other fish like a cleaner wrasse when juvies, eat pretty much any meaty food. Need anything else?
 
thank you mysis, i didnt relize they got that big looks like ill pass on him cause i love my corals and shrimp...thanks again
 
Definately not safe in a reef environment, and also are semi-agressive, but they are quite rare and would be good for atleast a 100gal FOWLER.
