![]() I have a 14g Nano, only occup. are a shrimp/goby. I would like to put in a couple fish that wont go run and hid when I get close to the tank.
I saw a 6L wrasse at the LFS, was told not to put it in anything smaller that a 30g., but I have been on-line looking and have found w/pages that say they are ok in a smaller tank. Anyone have any experience here? Would the 6 line bug the goby? |

![]() I got a big fat one and he stays out of the Niger's way but I am pretty sure he has eaten every pod and worm in the tank.
![]() I can see how it would be a problem with smaller fish. They are fast and feisty. Better not put one in with that goby unless it is small.

![]() I'm not too sure. If the fish is small he might do OK in that 14g for a little while but as he gets a little bigger he may grow restless. Wrasses are very active swimmers, they never really stop to take a break. They're almost like a hornet buzzing around the tank.

![]() I had my 6L in a 30g with my bi-colour blenny (bi-colour was there 1st) and they got along great. When we sold the 30g we moved them into my 230g (mostly tangs and angels in this tank) and my 6L hid for awhile. Now he is comfortable enough to swim around (doesn't bother anyone) and he actually swims around with my bi-colour a lot, I guess you could say they're best buds

![]() Can anyone comment on the compatibility of 6-lines with Cleaner Shrimp? I have two large cleaner shrimp that I don't want to lose if I add a 6-line.
