$imple Posted January 22, 2005 Share Posted January 22, 2005 I am looking for a few more critters to safely add to my fish tank. Currently I have: 2 False Percula Clownfish 1 Yellow Watchman Goby 1 Red Bali Starfish 4 Hermit Crabs (1/2 inch each) 2 Unknown Starfish (very tiny, 1 cm across) 1 Skunk Cleaner Shrimp I was thinking of adding either adding a Royal Gramma or a Firefish. What do you guys think? Is this overkill? Will I be safe? Thx, $imple Link to comment
Kogut Posted January 22, 2005 Share Posted January 22, 2005 Why not add some coral? Zoanthids and ricodia look very nice and are easy to care for. Link to comment
yoshiod9 Posted January 22, 2005 Share Posted January 22, 2005 i wouldn't add any more fish, that's for sure. you should add some more blue leg hermits and some snails(turbos, astreas, etc.). then add a bunch of coral like kogut said! Link to comment
$imple Posted January 22, 2005 Author Share Posted January 22, 2005 I have a RBTA, a Green Metallic Brain, and I think what's called a Candy Cane Coral so far. Link to comment
Kogut Posted January 22, 2005 Share Posted January 22, 2005 Well... If you have your heart set on adding more fish, what's your filtration setup? Meaning do you have a skimmer, sump, or fuge? You should add the inverts like yosh said. The hermits will add some color. IDK about having a star in that size tank, though. But if it works, so be it. Link to comment
$imple Posted January 22, 2005 Author Share Posted January 22, 2005 Well...I'm not set on adding anything if its not going to be safe. I just wanted to know if I have anymore room. Currently I have mechanical filtration and a CPR Bak Pak Protein Skimmer. I don't want to overstock so I guess I'm done with stocking fish. Anyone have any corals/frags they wouldn't mind parting with or would part with for a small fee. I would really like some colorful zoos, if even a small tiny rock because prices up here are ridiculous And concerning inverts, I would really like to add some more, but I want to get some that are efficient at algae control. What do you guys think of 6 more small hermit crabs (I honestly do not know what they are called, they aren't labeled at the LFS except for "TINY HERMIT CRABS") and 5 scarlet hermit crabs. Thanks for the help guys, $imple Link to comment
