Hi all!  I need help deciding what the theme for my contest tank should be and what livestock should go in!  Help me decide and vote in my poll.  

 

I want to keep it colorful as el Jeffe says all my tanks lack color :lol:  - he might be right!

Is it bad that I voted and I'm technically competition? :P  

:lol:  Nah, because I'm rooting for you which is weird since obviously I want to win too.  WTF is wrong with us?

I voted!

 

I also like the bangaii cardinals (what I was going to do before this crazy idea) and the fu manchu.  (I am going to try to persuade @skoechle for a 40B predator tank like felicia but with my awesome rocks and sand) but a school of cardinals sounds awesome.  So many options!

Yeah, I can't make up my mind.  My husband loves lion fish and while i'm not 100% sure on the size of the tank (it would be pushing it), I do think as long as I keep it heavily filtered and have lots of places for it to hide, I think it will be happy.  They're definitely the smallest of the species.

I voted Fu Manchu lionfish because they are adorable, but a frogfish or school of cardinals would be awesome too.

 

I voted 'jam a bunch of stuff in there' cuz that's basically my tank theme and it's fun. :P  Also, if you end up with a pom pom like my Shelby, she'd probably try to take on the Fu Manchu, and maybe win lol. :unsure:

HAHA!  That tends to be the theme of all my tanks :)

 

I had a pompom in my macro tank - and it up and died one day.  I was sad.

A pair of ORA radial filefish would be pretty cool with some macros and gorgs 

That's a great idea!

Okay... I'm leaning towards a fu manchu or a sargassum angler... rocks are still in a bucket cooking. Sand is rinsed. Picking up some fritzzyme turbostart 900 Sunday.

Sure is! And I think the tank will be too small for a fu Manchu

They are so pretty! Too much $$$ for me though, lol  I have a retired Greyhound, the poor man's Pharaoh Hound. lol

I had been thinking about doing a community vote for fish selection too. But I'm pretty close to knowing what I want. 

 

So have you decided - fu manchu

or sargassum angler?   Both are awesome!

I'm definitely leaning towards the angler. I just feel the tank is too small for a fu Manchu. What do you want to get??
