I know I might get some hate for this but one of my friends gave me his Niger trigger

[MarkShimala]

Like we said.....if he is small he should be fine for now, but eventually he will get big. One of my LFS always tell me things like that too that I can add tons of fish in my 90g and like 5 or 6 fish in my sons 14g Biocube. I know better though.

I only have 2 clowns in my sons Biocube....I may add a really small yellow watchman goby...they stay very small though. You have to fight the urge to want to add a bunch of fish. Never impulse buy. Always go with a plan. Dont just go to your LFS and then leave with a fish you havent researched prior. The LFS is ok to ask advice, but usually not on the spot. If you have a smartphone it is as simple as looking it up on Google to see the fish's requirements.

I personally go with peaceful fish, but that is just my preference. Your wish list is fine....just not long term in a 55g tank.

Also the fact that I feed 3 small feedings just to clarify

 

[Saltwatertanksrule]

Ohh yea the 55 isn't really long term as in forever a year or two at most I know those fish are too big for that I just am putting them in there till I can upgrade again and get more I most likely going to get a hundred gallon my Lfs said a foxface is good IN a 55 but o *********** it's 100 gallon that's a 45(not good at math) gallon difference and some of those fish won't be added till the hundred the only ones I might get is eel and Pygmy angel possibly a small tang

Live aquaria is one of the best sources for minimum tank size.

 

[Saltwatertanksrule]

Really it is

 

[Saltwatertanksrule]

I might get a 200 gallon

 

[Saltwatertanksrule]

I was told *********** is not always accurate(also the 1dt one wasn't rude I actually was surprised$

 

[Saltwatertanksrule]

I also would like to ask is he good with anenomes(also I have to ask how do I post picture)

 

[lmforbis]

Pics you just click the icon with the mountains and upload the pic. If they are too big I just email them to myself and resize them then save on my computer.

Anemones need a very established tank and very intense lighting of the correct wave length to survive.

 

[Saltwatertanksrule]

Thanks also will the Niger get along with any clowns?

 

[bang guy]

A Niger normally wouldn't bother anything larger than an Amphipod. Being in a smaller than ideal tank will sometimes affect their personality though.

 

[Saltwatertanksrule]

Yea I've heard that can happen

I might get a 200 gallon

Ahh. Bitten by the salt bug.
