Reef Compatibility
We have included a general guideline in our Quick Stats designating the compatibility of different fish species with other livestock in an aquarium. This is provided to give you an idea of what species can be housed with other fish, coral and invertebrate.
– REEF SAFE:
Species within this category are considered 100% reef safe.
– CORAL ONLY:
Species within this category are considered safe with coral but may be prone to consuming or harassing invertebrates such as shrimp, crabs, snails, anemones or clams.
– INVERTS ONLY:
Species within this category are considered safe with invertebrate but may be prone to consuming or harassing corals.
– FISH ONLY:
Species within this category are considered safe with fish but may be prone to consuming or harassing corals and invertebrate.
– FISH & CORAL ONLY:
Species within this category are considered safe with fish and coral but may be prone to consuming or harassing invertebrate.
– FISH & INVERTS ONLY:
Species within this category are considered safe with fish and invertebrate but may be prone to consuming or harassing corals.
– CORAL & INVERT ONLY:
Species within this category are considered safe with coral and invertebrate but may be prone to consuming or harassing fish.
PLEASE NOTE:
These are only our recommendations and whilst a fish may be marked as unsafe for a particular group, depending on the individual fish, may be fine to co-exist with that group.
For example, a fish marked as “Fish & Coral Only”, may only consume particular invertebrate such as Shrimp or Snails or could also co-exist with them and you would experience no issues at all.
