My mystery wrasse is making me mad, I'd hate to get rid of him, but I can't keep him in the 50 any more. He has killed my madator wrasse, and chased the multicolored velvet wrasse out of the tank, litteraly! They weren't problems until like a week ago. I'm suprised he is leaving the sixline alone, whom is the smallest of them all. The other thing is that he chases larger shrimp into remission, and eats smaller ones like really expensive popcorn, and I need to get peppermints in there to get rid of the regrowing aiptasia. I have 2 options, 1-get rid of him altogether, or 2-set up the smallest tank that he could possibly live in.
So, my question is, what is the smallest tank a mystery wrasse could live in? I was thinking something like a 20l or 20h. I could get a 30l, but it is probably too heavy for where I want to put it. From my understanding, they can get to 5", and mines about 4"-4.5". Or, if I sell him, what do you think I could sell him for? I'm moving in 2-3 months, and will hopefully be able to get something like a 40g breeder for my reef, and convert my 50 to a FOWLR for the wrasse and yellow tang, but for now, I already have the 10g and the 50g and have litteraly no room except for the top of my entertainment center which used to have a 20l on it. The 10g will probably have to be taken down in order for the new tank to go up, btw.
Thanks, and sorry for the really long post...
