Yellow fish for 45 gallon?
I don’t care for the yellow watchman gobies and have a green coris wrasse - so adding a yellow coris doesn’t seem like the best idea.
Are there any other alternatives for a yellow fish? Current stock list - 2 oscellaris designer clowns, a neon dottyback, green coris wrasse, and I have 3 chalk bass in quarantine. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Last edited by djryan2000; 08/06/2020 at 12:33 PM. |

Well, there is the royal gamma basslet, but it is half yellow and half purple.

I was about to say Midas Blenny but what are the dimensions of your tank?
Or maybe a Canary Blenny (Meiacanthus). I know this one’s not fully Yellow but a Bicolor Blenny. Again only partially yellow but an Atlantic Cherub Angelfish. If you want some Damsels, maybe an Azure. Not sure about the aggression level of the Lemon. Oh wait..... a Yellow Assessor. Maybe that’s the best fit for you. If you want a Blenny, Canary Blenny. If you want a basslet, Yellow Assessor. I heard the Meiacanthus Blennies If wild caught can be somewhat finicky eaters, you can go captive bred from ORA if you want a blenny that’s Yellow. Otherwise I think the Assessor would be your best choice though I’d monitor for any aggression from the Green Coris. Gramma dejongi? Lol. That one’s insanely expensive. |

Those get too big for a 45 gallon unless OP plans to upgrade.

1. Canary Blenny
2. Yellow Assessor Would be your best bets. Midas Blennies get to 5-6”. If don’t mind a fish that’s only partially yellow, a Royal Gramma, Cherub Angelfish, Bicolor Blenny, and Azure Damsels would be your best bet. Wait, one more. Yellow Striped Cardinalfish. You can maybe do a trio in a 45. |

I second the vote for a yellow assessor, very vibrant color. A little yellow clown goby is another option.
