What were your plans for fish?
fishes2889
In Memoriam
Im thinking either a pair of Black onyx clowns or somewhere along the lines of a goby that burrows or somthing. But im pretty set on what corals i want to put in. I still need to buy a small powerhead because all of mine( i have 8) are to big for this, and to strong. Im not getting enough flow to the left side of the tank so that another thing i have to buy. The whole set up is going to push me into, in regardes to money, around 230$ bucks.I think i might actually go to the lfs today. not sure.

The one that i work at has at least 200 salt and fresh water fish in the store.Its the most ive ever seen in an lfs before i moved.

And in any case the black onyx is still a true perc just all or almost black. It runs about 35 each at the store. So they are a little rare. My store gets them shipped from england.
