They find comfort in,numbers so they should be happy idk if you could mix types though like purple and standardThanks. I’m not too heavily stocked. Don’t intend to add many more fish. In the LFS when I picked it up, they seemed to be schooling. I’ll go pick up another one of these days.
It always stays out in the open water. Hopefully it will eventually find a place to retreat.
Yeah, my first firefish in original tank committed suicide tooI just stuck with the one. It want carpet surfing. My tank Is pretty well covered, but it somehow managed to jump. There is only a 1 inch gap on each side that is not covered. I was away for 2 weeks when it happened. My wife said she found it on the floor. I will get another one some day.
They are beautiful but everyone is getting along great so not sure if should try again... especially since the clowns were attacked by the last ones.Firefish was my first fish and is just beautiful. My daughter’s favorite fish all along, even after she chose the clownfish and royal gramma. Somehow survived a velvet outbreak that killed nearly all the other fish. I’ve aleays read its best to keep one as they will bully each other unless it’s a large tank, but they are peaceful and serene. The other color variations are nice but the original red and white with iridescent blue highlights on the spine and eyes is just gorgeous.
