Nick's Reef Posted December 28, 2007 Share Posted December 28, 2007 Well i got bored so i decided to make up my stocking list. FISH pair of red banded gobys pair of clowns maby one other fish but i have not decided yet (if so probably a coral beauty) CORALS Tons of zoas/palys hammer mushrooms ricordia red monti few acans (maby) GSP duncan INVERTS 10 blue legged hermits 1 pepperment shrimp 5 turbos 10 nass 7 ceriths 1 emerald crab MACRO ALGAE halamedia cheato Well i think that is it. Sounds like a good list but the coral beauty may nip at your lps and sps corals. Also where is the shrimp for the gobies? Link to comment
StevieT Posted December 28, 2007 Share Posted December 28, 2007 That is one quality drawing !!! haha, no i do undersand what you mean. Hidding it with rock is a good idea, i don't know if it will effect the flow around the cheato, but it will look nice. I would love to get some, but i dont' like the way it looks inside a reef tank. It sure helps though ! Sounds like a good list but the coral beauty may nip at your lps and sps corals. Also where is the shrimp for the gobies? I have a coral beauty in my RSM and so far so good. He does nip but mostly at rock and the algae on my gorgs, he doesn't touch the corals. Link to comment

Lol i am not sure that i will get the coral beauty but it is just a possibility. I might get a shrimp for the gobies, not sure though.

Yeah i hate the way it looks in a reef tank but i guess it is just something to get over considering on how much it helps. Do you think if i fed the coral beauty twice a week with some sort of algae or something he would stay away from the corals? I guess it is just a risk i have to take for getting a beautiful fish.

StevieT Posted December 28, 2007 Share Posted December 28, 2007 It should be fine if you feed it. They eat EVERYTHING!!! mine loves mysis, brine, flake etc..... he eats with my other fish. I love the way he looks and swims. Link to comment

StevieT Posted December 28, 2007 Share Posted December 28, 2007 Coral Beauty, Purple firefish, yellow watchman, pajama cardinal, black clown peppermint shrimp, snails, crabs I am all stocked up with fish, and my rock is getting full of corals, not much room for more... The cardinal came from my old tank, i don't exactly like him, but he is a trooper and with me from the start ! pepermint and some of the crabs and snails made the move as well. Link to comment
lilredneckman Posted December 28, 2007 Author Share Posted December 28, 2007 If i kept up with the water changes each week you think i could have a yellow clown goby? for some odd reason i really like those little guys. Link to comment
StevieT Posted December 28, 2007 Share Posted December 28, 2007 I love them too, i wish I would have found one earlier. Yes, you'll be fine. As far as I know they are small and your tank is perfect. Weekly waterchanges are important not only for bio load but for corals. little info: http://liveaquaria.com/product/prod_displa...tid=161&N=0 Link to comment

If i have trouble feeding him what should i do, try cyclopeeze, and live brine? Link to comment
Nick's Reef Posted December 28, 2007 Share Posted December 28, 2007 Thanks for the link. If i have trouble feeding him what should i do, try cyclopeeze, and live brine? Anytime i've had a picky eater i just used mysis, and they eat everytime! Link to comment
H20 Posted December 28, 2007 Share Posted December 28, 2007 The little yellow clown gobys can be finicky eaters, alot of it seems to do with how small their mouth is. Alot of the flakes and granules they can't fit into their mouth. And if they do, alot of times they spit it out. I have found that mine seems to like Cyclops/cylopeeze the best. It is tiny and easy for him to eat. Also, your corals will love the cyclopeeze too. Link to comment

spanko Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 Top two rocks look a little precarious. Are they stable, hate to see them fall over on some coral or other livestock later. Nice looking rock though. Link to comment

Nice looking rock though. +1 its gr8 quality rock, also this is JMO, but it seems that your aquascape will leave deadspots in your tank. Just My 0.02 -Trevor Link to comment
lilredneckman Posted December 31, 2007 Author Share Posted December 31, 2007 Well they are really stable but i guess later i will reshape it. Link to comment
