I'm all over in mind about what I want to put in my 40B when the time comes. There's just too many questions that I can't really answer, and certainly don't know enough about to do this on my own.
What I'd like is somethign that's a little bit different than what would be found in a nano, but will still do well in 40B. I suppose I should give a little about my setup. It's a 40B with a 20L sump. It's only been up for 3-4 weeks (I know, no fish yet, I just like to plan ahead). No skimmer as yet, but there is a fuge with some chaeto in it. Down the road, I intend to get a skimmer, but that'll probalby require a new sump (didn't realize the dimensions of some of the skimmers, so that chamber is too small for an ASM or Euro-Reef).
Some of the fish I've considered:
clownfish (no percs, though, way too common, and I'd hate the cry of "nemo")
firefish
midas blenny (or any blenny, just like these for some reason)
flame hawkfish
royal gramma
6-line
That's just a list of things I've considered, not planning on keeping all of them, just some mix of those. What I'm really looking for is something that's just a bit differesnt
Could I keep flasher wrasses of some kind? Like one male and a couple females?
What about jawfish? I only have a 1 inch sand bed, but I've seen some mention that they can just build their place under some LR and use some rubble for an entrance.
I'm really open to any suggestions anyone has. I don't feel I know enough to know what would do well and what wouldn't.
