I personally hate the bb look on my tanks. Tried it once on my 210g back in the day and my wife & I hated it.

Doug, look at getting a Cherub dwarf/dwarf angel. Only grows to 1.5-2" but beautiful royal blue with yellow face. Not too expensive either. One of my fav. fish.

have a 6Line in a BB for around 7 years and no problems but I do have a hood, though he's never been in the overflow nor have I found him on the eurobracing.

Old tank did loose a coris wrasse through a tiny gap so know they'll jump.

I would love to Anthony, but would it not nip at my sps and/or clams?

I like six lines Mark. I dont think they require sand as the sleep in the rock. Are they not the one that makes a slime type nest around themselves at night.

They are great for a tank of my design. But they can become bullies and I have seen them knock snails off the glass, for a snack. My friends in his 180 was the almost the size of my female perc. And we wondered what was happening to all his snails....

But a nice option for sure.

Oh and forgot to add, his 6 line was many year old and it did finally die by jumping.

Google Cherub angels. They are completely reefsafe in my experience. Have had them for at least 7-8 years now. Living with clams, softies, lps, sps & anemones. Never a problem.

Thanks for the link. They are beautiful. Never nipped at your clam mantles?

Nope never. Had them with Derasas, Squamosas, Croceas and Maximas over the years. I cannot guarantee that you'll have same experience though

My present one lives with Squamosa.
