Sixline Wrasse

[okkiedokki]

Would a 24g NC be too small for a sixline? I've read posts that say no and yes.

I am sure you will get posts here that say the same.

IME, no.

I had one in a 55 and he used every inch of it swimming in and out of rocks alllll day long. He would pick at every rock looking for pods and stuff to eat.

IMO, a 24 is too small because wrasses love to swim around, and a 24 gallon with rock in it wouldn't be enough to satisfy one.

Thats my take though, like I said, you will probably find more people here that say yes and no.

Sizlines can get HUGE. They do need alot of live rock and alot of rom to swim around. I would pass on the sixline for now.

LOL... I have a ~5" sixline in my 200. I don't think he would be too happy in a 24 NC.

I hope you were just trying to get a rise with that 5 gallon comment... IMO that's not being a responsible hobbiest.

Thanks for the answers that helps me out a lot. I'm not gonna get one, I actually feel better not getting another fish to add to my bioload. Next question, how do i get rid of pyramid snails then; should i just pick them out slowly?
