Looks like CBB is recommended for 5-6'+ tanks. Darn.
Ah,, there are some posters who have kept them in 4" tanks.
1.5" to 2.5" is ideal. They are in the pod stage of food. So, if they aren't eating pods, they are pretty much done for.

Thoughts, are any/all of the following possible in a 48"x20"x20" tank (83gal)?
1. CBB
2. Foxface (any kind)
3. Kole or Tomini tang?
If you go foxy, you wont need a tang, I guess you could still do 1 of the 2. But, foxy needs one of the 2. All of the fox I see and most I hear about are absolute chickens.

Heretic!
I think @fishguy242 needs at least a 5’ tank unfortunately
And pulling @Slocke in, below with one or more of the above?
1. rhomboidalis
Cool
2. Anampses meleagris
My favorite(at least while Hawaii is closed)
3. Cirrhilabrus exquisitus
Awesome
4. rubeus
Awesomer
5. brunneus
Meh
6. lubbocki
Cool
7. labouti
Too big and aggressive maybe
8. Anyone from Bathyphilus complex
The best complex!

Might be too many fairies and I’d cut the labouts. Could get some flashers?

Only one my two foxes is a coward. The other will hand feed and hasn’t shown stress colors in years. The other one though is scared of its own shadow so…

My fox was a coward initially. Came around and is fine now. Was bff's with my scopas when I had tangs, now without the tangs it trails along with my marine betta. I think they just need a safety fish to protect them :face-with-tears-of-joy:

that lil guy move inches per day... :oops: :)
She sure can cover ground. I'm just hoping this isn't warfare. Orange moved to that spot, so i guess it's plate worthy.
I had the orange more over to the left. Everyday, it moved closer to the center.

Im worried about the blue. Still see polyps, flesh isn't healing. I just wait.

So you're saying, if i had gotten a loubti, i could have kept my regal in check? Or would he become a victim too?
IDK not to give away my secrets but I basically just use this….

For some reason labouts are popular right now. I don’t really get it.

mine used to cuddle up all the time with no issues, every time I would separate I'd find them back together.
