The worst would be a black volitain, it went from a 20dollar fish to a 200fish in about a month, ate all my inverts, and fish, and was a pain in the @ss... Second worst would be Two, count em', yes I said, as in 2-snowflake eels in a 29gallon.... tall! I did it but never again. They were happy to move to the 125, but I read some books, asked around, and decided to trade em in for store credit.
Poll: What will you not ever put in your reef tank (again)
- Thread starter Mabu
- Start date
MandarinFish:
Some people have trouble with the pygmy angels nipping at their corals and clams. They are fine in a FOWLR tank though.
I will never buy Xenia, long tentacled plate corals, or put a tang in my reef tank again. I also ditto everyone here who has had trouble with blue legged hermit crabs - they really did a number on my Nassarius snails.

I just don't like the way my purple and yellow tangs act. Sometimes they bulley the others and I feel they shouldn't be in anything less than a 150 gal. I got rid of the yellow but just can't get rid of the purple because he looks great. Lucky for me I got him small and he is staying that way.

Dang, I guess I really messed up. I still have them but unable to get hold of them all.
Peppermint Shrimp=>depleted worms in refugium
Cleaner Shrimp=>Pester the heck out of my clams where they didn't open for two days. Had to move them on the highest rock work.
RIO==>Two burnouts before I knew about online forums
BLuelegged Hermits==>Empty shells still occurring.
Mushrooms==>Don't know what the fascination.
