Fishy day

I couldn't decide on the last fish purchase for the 125 reef, it was between a school of Chalk Bass or Anthias...I chose the Anthias even though they are much harder to care for. These came from Beldts and should fatten up nicely.

I picked up four and will end up adding another 3 or 4 in the next few weeks. They are fast swimming, colorful and active. A perfect compliment for the reef.

how many ifsh do you plan on having total and what is the total water volume? i ask because i also have a 125 and have been trying to figure out what the max. amount of fish should be. right now ive only got 3 fish in it. i always wanted to do a school of fish, but thought that there wouldnt be enough room for them

I am probably pushing it for bio-load and the Anthias are the last fish for the tank. Most of the fish stay small except for the tangs. The Bartletts stay small so if things work out and there are no water quality issues in the next few months I may add 3-4 more.
