    Each tank is different but i just set up my new tank. Dry sand, about 50lbs live rock, 30 lbs dry. Caluperta and gracilla. It took 6 weeks just to cycle and i took a filter loaded with pods and bacteria off my 75 to help it along

    Your top two are your best choices for your tank. That said, i have a hovans wrasse and i love it. Very peaceful but they get too big for a 36. Mine is about 5" the x mas wrasse is very nice looking but they all do not look alike. So see what u buy first

    I have 4 clowns. A pair of occ. A black and white occ and a maroon. Honestly none are overly aggressive. Don't keep an anemone with a maroon and even there not bad. They are best kept single tho. Now that said, its either a pair to start or a single to never be paired. Its tough to add a new...
