im sure there is an old thread about this, but im going to ask anyways.
i already have a saltwater tank, just a 10gal, with wayyyyy too many fish. in the tank i have a blue damsel, an oc. clown, a 6line wrasse. these three are all a bit less than 1 1/2 inches. i also have a small snoflake moray eel that is about 8 inches long, and a worm goby that is about 2 1/4 inches. im cycling a bigger tank rite now, and i had inteded it for an octo, but then i decided on a huge reef tank...but its too pricy for a 17 year old. my question is, are any of my current fish able to be tankmates with an octo? i know the eel probably isnt, i heard eels like to eat octos in the wild. but what about the damsel and clown and wrasse and goby? they will all grow to about 4 inches, except the goby, which gets up t a foot.
anyone have any luck with a small octo and unaggressive fish like mine?
