Well I have run into a problem, I'm still cycling the brand new 95 gallon tank and realise that it's just too small!!!
But we will have to stick with it for a while since it took 4 months to build the stand and set it all up properly and unless we rob a bank there is no money for a bigger setup - yet!!
So stocking.
We have:
1 Percula Clownfish
1 SixLine Wrasse
We want:
1 Coral Beauty
1 Foxface Rabbitfish
1 Cleaner Shrimp
1 Sexy Shrimp
One year down the line we also want:
1 Mandarin Goby
The questions:
Are anthias really that difficult (I've read one thread tonight that says they require 155 Gallons min but I have read on other websites that 55 Gallon is fine)....Any comments here? I'd like 2 bicolor anthias if possible.
If Anthias aren't an option then we might like a green/blue chromis mix but apparently they don't do so well with seahorses......true?
Are seahorses really difficult to care for? I've read many different conflicting reports! I'd really like one as I think they are so beautiful and elegant.
It will be a mixed reef tank with softies and LPS and maybe in a years time when we know more some SPS.......
Any comments/questions/ideas/etc please feel free to comment.
We won't start stocking until after Christmas but I really want to get organised and order the fish in the right order; make sure my fish shop can get them, etc!
Cheers
Fiona
