New fish
« on: December 15, 2011, 20:32:57 »
So I am thinking about adding some new fish to my system. Problem is I am tired of the same old fish you see everyday. Any suggestions?

Thought about that but I won't spend over $100 on a fish especially one that is that prone to doing bad during shipping. Our tank has been running for almost a year now and we are already getting board with it. Probably explains why we upgrade every 2 years lol.

I second the achilles tang.  I love them!  Everyone sells them for 100+?

I know if I had a tank that big I would have to try some schooling fish and some pairs of different fish. Would love to have a nice group of pygmy angels or regals.

We have talked about down sizing to a smaller (120g) reef and turning the 400 into a planted fresh water. I'm just  board with our current setup.

Amen steve... I would love to have your setup mike...


I think a planted sw fuge would be cooler than a planted fw tank...

Do a bass or ply wood shark tank ;)

I could see a planted tank with about 200 cardinal tetras and 20 or so nice discus, and just in case you need a home for some red planet let me know.

I seen one at the petstore for the first time and I would of actually gotten it instead of my powder brown if i had seen it before.  I like the choc minic tang.
