hummm what to do??


i have 2 black leopard wrasses , they just arnt going to get along. i have the one whos less dominant in my overflow box .....


heres the kicker i love this fish , not really wanting to rehome him:(


my options:


option number 1- re home him to someone else??


option2- put him in my bonsai untill a later time


option 3- let them stay together, no actual fighting is happening but the more dominant constanty follows and harrasses the other and stops him from hunting:(

none of the other tanks in the house are suited for a leopard wrasse.

both leopard wrasses are less than an inch in length and eating frozen/live:)

I vote option 2 as they're cool fish

Wow, >1" ? Lucky you

Edit: forgot you have glass substrate so that's a tough decision

Leopard wrasse's dive into the sand at night to sleep, so unless you can add a container of sand to your 25g cube I would re-home him to someone else.

i thought so too , since im going for a calm and peaceful look the shadowy background will look cool when the red/blue leds are on and also when the halides are on:)
