A. percula & S. gigantea biotope tank

[ThRoewer]

I'm planning to set up a 50 gallon biotope tank for one of my percula pairs and my current gigantea.

So I'm looking for some inspirational images, ideally from the wild.

My idea would be a tide pool setting with a back wall of live rock and live rock rubble on the ground.

Which corals are usually found in those areas?

Which other fish would be a fit?

Nothing like a first hand account.

Too many gigs in too little space.

I'm more interested in having one (or maybe two) gigantea with a group of percula as a centerpiece with corals, zoas and macro algae around it.

With the percula I plan to start with my pair 3 and add a few days old babies as soon as one of my pairs starts spawning.

That is more like what I had in mind, but with a little bit more rocks.

The most interesting are the groups of differently sized gigs that are all having the same coloration. It would be interesting to check their DNA to see if they are clones.

Not for long. He's got a big gig tank coming and it's going to be epic. I only say this because I know what he's been up to as far as dimensions of the new tank and equipment.
