Dottyback and Firefish compatible??

[linz8392]

Sorry...my first post mentioned a Orchid Dottyback.....i realize that its not....
it's a bicolor dottyback....im assuming this is the same as a royal dottyback too as they look identical.

Will a firefish be ok with a bicolor/royal dottyback then in a 46 gallon reef tank with lots of rock?

thanks for any help

No the firefish cannot tolerate the territorial aggression of the dottybacks.

had a bi-colour, one mean fish

go with the royal gramma instead of the bicolor pseudochromis- probably easier to find as well- thats what i did. very peaceful fish... timid but peaceful

I had a Purple Pseudocromis and it was fine with the firefish... although the royal gramma i got after the pseudocromis jumped would prolly be a better choice.
