i will give this a shot
2 false percula clownfish
1 green chromi
1 mandarin goby
whats some others that would go good with this list?
tank info is in my sig

 

[sithlordrob]

55 gallon FOWLR. Fluval 306 canister. AquaC Remora skimmer. No sump/fuge. 2" crushed coral bed. 45lbs live rock.

I'm in love with the dwarf lions.

Purposed stock list:
Dendrochirus zebra
Dendrochirus brachypterus
Suitable tank mates? And what else could I safely put in and keep the bio load to a minimum and not crowd the tank? I really only want 2 maybe 3 more fish in the tank, but I don't want them to become snacks for the lions

Snails for the CUC.

Thanks,
Rob :strooper:

Purposed stock list:
Dendrochirus zebra lionfish will eat or attempt to eat any fish that will fit in its mouth. In any case, I do not provide commentary on aggressive tanks. We do have a forum especially for those type tanks.

Planning for new 100g tank

Planning for new 100g tank

Proposed tank is 100 gal, with live rock and a sump. Long story short, I've allways been interested in building a marine tank (had a succussful 40 gal freshwater tank for years) and my 7 y/o daughter finally convinced me to start one (with the not so enthusiastic blessing of my wife). We're in the planning stages and would like to know if the following are compatible:

- dwarf lionfish
- bird wrass

- brain coral

I love the look of the picasso triggerfish, but I'm reading that they enjoy eating crustaceans and other invertebrates.

TIA for the feedback.

2 snowflake clowns.
1 watchman goby
1 midas blenny
1 6 line wrasse

This will be my second go with a mini reef tank. My previous tank was awesome, but I had to break it down about 5 years ago.

My new tank is cycling, but I'm planning it out now. It's a 29 gallon bio cube... so far just as-is, no add-ons or upgrades. I have 20 lb live sand and about 16 lb live rock - will be adding more rock to get up to about 30 lb. Corals will all be softies... mushrooms, ricordias, buttons, maybe some star polyps.

My fish wish list is:

1 ocellaris clown - or maybe a mated pair?
1 royal gramma
1 citron goby or yellow watchman goby?
1 catalina goby
2 neon gobies
plus clean-up crew

I had a pair of mated ocellaris clowns in my previous tank which I loved... so I'm contemplating that. I also had a yellow watchman goby - what a character! I haven't had any other gobies, so I'm wondering about their compatability. Any thoughts or comments?

Thanks!

1 ocellaris clown - or maybe a mated pair? If sexually mature and paired, will be aggressive especially towards water column fish
1 royal gramma
1 citron goby or yellow watchman goby?
1 catalina goby requires cool temperatures, nolt recommended
2 neon gobies if not a mated pair, only one will work
plus clean-up crew

Zebrasoma xanthurum

Zebrasoma xanthurum

I'd like to add 1, or possibly 2 Zebrasoma xanthurum.

One is fine, two, even in your sized tank is marginal (they are aggressive). Best chance is add together but I certainly would not bet on a positive outcome.
