    Pakastani Butterfly fish attacking my Yellow striped marroons

    I take it the Clowns are new?

    Turn off the lights, cross your fingers and hope for the best. Or take out the Clowns and take them to the LFS for store credit

    Just say NO to CRABS

    The problem is that the 40-gal tank is too small for the Butterflyfish or the Yellow Tang. Both require larger tanks, especially as they begin to grow larger. Your best solution would be to remove both the butterflyfish and the tang.

    yea, the 40 is wayyyy to small for the two larger guys, im not suprised both the butterfly and tang arent fighting considering they really dont have much space.
