Cullent17 Posted January 23, 2013 Author Share Posted January 23, 2013 Right now I am thinking about what to stock in this tank. I know I want mostly Lps and zoas/ricodias. Any suggestions as for species and color varieties? I'm also not sure what fish to stock in the tank I like blennys and gobies but want something that is more out and active in the tank. Suggestions?

Cullent17 Posted January 24, 2013 Author Share Posted January 24, 2013 Ok so it has been a little while since my last post. All of my levels are staying good. Ammonia and nitrites both still 0. pH 8 temp 78.0. My nitrates have fluctuating a lot but they are at 5 ppm now. My salinity has been steady at 1.025. I have also added more livestock including some maroon or red zoas an octopus euphyllia and a green Duncan. I also added a percula clown fish that was awesome and would host my hammer coral but unfortunately a few days later was dead. I'm guessing brooklynella. I'm really wishing I quarantined the fish first cause now I have to wait weeks before I will feel comfortable adding any new fish species. I would love to hear what you guys think and any suggestions or comments. Link to comment
Cullent17 Posted February 5, 2013 Author Share Posted February 5, 2013 What should I get next? Thinking about making the bottom left side a zoa garden. What are some other colorful non aggressive corals that could go with them, ricordia? Link to comment
