Fish that work well with crocea

[down&dirty]

I just got my first crocera. I love it, people in the office think that I am crazy because the reef tank is now sitting directly infront of my desk. Nothing better than 75 gallons of reef to stare at when the work day is dragging out. Now that I have a clam, what fish will work in the tank. Currently I have a sailfin tang and an LMB in there. There is also a couple emerald crabs, hermits, and a coral banded shrimp. I don't want to get anything else until I am sure it won't mess with my clam. Hopefully I will have the second crocera in there by the end of the week since my LFS is having a sale on them. I also hope that a 250 watt MH will provide enough light to keep them happy, and healthy.

I would never be able to keep a nano, let alone a 75g at work! Not only would they not allow it, but my productivity would go all to hell. I spend so much time looking and maintaining the one I have at home, I would end up wanting to do the same to the one at work! Do you have a skimmer and reactor there as well? The thought of water changes at the office, man....

It all depends on what type of fish you like. Most reef safe fish are good with clams. Good luck!

i have a 40 breeder at work and have some pseudocromis, cardinals and a pair of ocelaris clowns with 4 maximas, pretty much any fish that won't kill the clams will be fine, even some triggers such as blue chin triggers.

how the heck did they let you get away with keeping a tank at work?

Wow ... got any pics of your office? I took a bunch of garbage for putting in a 5.5g glass nano ... I can't imagine what they'd do if I tried to put in something 15 times that size!

All I can say is must be nice, would almost look forward to all those overtime hours lol. I am a fan of most gobies they stay relativeley small so there is a lower bio load on the tank and come in a variety of colours.
