The compatibility of your tank mates is critical to a healthy and thriving marine environment. Incompatible or hostile species will increase the stress in the tank and could result in disease or the inadvertent loss of your reef inhabitants. The chart below is a suggested guideline when selecting coral, fish and invertebrates to cohabitate in their new home.

Please keep in-mind that no guarantees can be made about the compatibility or incompatibility of any particular species of fish or invertebrates. Some species within a group can and do occasionally vary in temperament and may not correspond with the guideline. To view a full-size version of the chart, please click on the image below.
