ALAICA - 2008-06-11 The mono is a great looking fish and they are full saltwater aquarium fish as they mature. I have one in my reef tank. I had 2 but they are very nippy as an adult and it killed the other one that I had. I have not been able to add more since then, he kills them all. He actually hunts them down and attacks them. But none the less, they are very attractive saltwater aquarium fish. They seem to retain the yellow coloration in their fins better in saltwtaer.

pete - 2009-04-23 You broke the cardinal rule of stocking. All fish of the same species must be kept singly or in a school, preferably 4 minimum. Brackish fish, in particular, will kill any new tankmates of the same species, especially juveniles, especially if there's only one or two. Adding one fish to an established school might work, or vice versa-- adding a school to be with a singly kept fish.
The Mono Fish is a shiny diamond shaped fish that's perfect for the brackish water aquarium!
