Yellow Belly Red Sea Regal

[Dace]

I just picked up a yellow belly Regal and was hoping it will do good in my 180 SPS tank. I already took out the the zoo's and am only alittle concern about my Blastos,Acans, And clams. what do you guys think. I will be putting him in my 30 gallon frag tank for a day or two to see if he would nip on my sps frags.

He is a beauty.

You never can tell. The clams should be OK, but the LPS could be at risk. Red Sea specimens tend to be a little better behaved for some reason BUT....

you have to be willing to make sacrifices. which do you like better the fish or the coral

fish

ill get to see it in person this weekend hopefully. i got rid of my coral beauty, cause i wasnt sure even though it is one of the safer fish

I had two that liked to pick at clams

 

[jhale]

I would not mind the coral picking, the clam picking would be a problem.

Mine likes colorful expensive zoas, acans and blastos but leaves my sps and cheapo palys, froggies and hammers alone. Not interested in clams neither.

I had a Red Sea Regal for about two years.
Got it when it was about 1.5" and it grew to about 3".
One day it was great(Reef Safe), and the next it's taste in food changed.
Clams and LPS were were all fair game.
I can't say I wouldn't try again, sweet looking fish.
