pseudochromis is known to be a bad mofo. Get rid of him ha ha! Then get another firefish.

I wonder... does anyone care enough to read signatures if you make them really small? I would not. I would probably moan and complain, read three words and swear once or twice. But since you made it this far, please rate my builds.

Which Pseudochromis did you get anyway? Some of them are much worse than others. The Orchid Dottyback tends to be the lesser of the evils, but imo most Psedochromis do well as either the only fish in a nano or as one of many in a larger tank. They can be quite the bullies, and it is best if their aggression can be diluted with many other fish. A Firefish is certainly no match for any Pseudochromis. When are you upgrading to the 80? Maybe you have a friend that could babysit the Pseduchromis or the Firefish until the bigger tank is set up?

Well, thanks for sticking up for me guy and gals! Gobytron's comment did make me laugh though...s/he has a point!

If that's in reference to my comment I meant get a person to babysit the Pseudochromis in a tank that is more appropriate for it until you get the 80 going, and you can get the fish back then.
