squirrel fish

[swifter]

Hello again,

what are y'all's thoughts on Squirrel fish? My fiance loves the look of them and has one in the tank at work.

I need to know the good and bad about them.

a few questions are:

what do they eat?

how big do they get?

are they aggressive?

(will they be alright in my tank for a year or so until we upgrade? (60 gallons FOWLR. Have a orange shoulder tang/Koran Angel/2 standard clown fish/2 blue green damsels)

thanks again for the advice.

one or more would be good for you ,I sold a great big-eye from Hawaii today . It was 2.5 inch dark orange great colors.
They will get large and eat a lot (pellets or shrimp )plus they have a large mouth but they rarely get mean.
Also they are night time creatures so have some caves, candy stripes are from hawaii too.
