Any one have any experience with this guy in a reef. I'm looking for a really colorful fish but do not want to get one very large.

Thanks,

They're small and colorful; they stay under 5", best for tanks 30+g. They're no problem with corals, but they may take out fanworms, some snails, and small shrimp. They've also been known to eat planaria flatworms, which is a big bonus. The strange thing is that they seem to do this more if they're in a tank with a 6-line wrasse. Either alone usually won't completely get rid of a population, but together they can.
