I added a yellow tang, regal tang, and I got a powder blue tang as a gift. I also added a bubble wand to my 75 gal fowlr tank with 2 clowns, hermit crab, and 2 snails.
The yellow and powder blue tang get along great, swimming together all the time. The regal blue tang lays on the bottom in the bubbles and doesn't swim much at all, he does eat though. Is this normal??? I have seen the yellow and the powder blue darting at him once in a while. They are all about the same size. I tried taking the regal blue back to the LFS, but was shot down. The clowns are doing fine.
I also threw in a couple of empty shells for the blue hermit crab to check out. He has been inside one of them for two days now, with his original shell part way inside the new one. Is this normal??? How long does it take for a crab to switch shells???
I was going to leave the tank alone for about 2-3 weeks, and am thinking about getting a flame angel and maybe a manderin. Any thoughts, good or bad, about these fish would be welcomed.
Thanks,
Mick
