In that sized tank, I'd say one. Any more than that and you're going to have territorial issues.

It is in the lighting section, of Home Depot. It's proper name is something like Florescent Light Difuser. The thing that makes it so great is that it can be cut, with wire-cutters, to form around anything you have hanging from your tank...such as my skimmer...

Did you know, that in the wild, Marine Betta's and Whitemouth Morays (like mine), have a symbiotic relationship?

Ahhhh....not even going to get into this debate. LOL It depends on what your definition of Brazilian Dragon is. If you're referring to that particular species, then go for it. If you're referring to the Jeweled Moray, I'd pass on it...they're ugly.

I've had bad experiances with cyanide caught Indo's as well.

I, personally, dont really like Chuck Norris...I was a big fan of that Delta Force movie, when I was kid though. My aunt was in love with him and we used to make fun of her about it all the time. I'm sure that some people find the Chuck Norris jokes old, because they've heard them so...

In a tank that size, they'd undoubtedly fight. You need quite a large tank (300gal +) to be able to keep more than one...and even then, they still might fight.

Originally Posted by lion_crazz AW2, just out of curiosity, what tank do you have this fish in? I know you have an eel tank, but from what I remembered, you had aggressive eels. At 3", he is currently in a 12gal. JBJ Nano Cube, with the 1" Diamond Goby, 1/2" Pistol Shrimp, 25 Nassarius Snail...

Originally Posted by lion_crazz AW2, I am not sure if you saw my question, but I was wondering how large that particular species got? I have always been fascinated with sea robins. Sorry about that...I didnt see the question. From what I gather, they can reach lengths of up to 16" (I must...

Here are some pics of him hangin' out, in the tank. He's already eating frozen too, which is a HUGE plus.

The fish stores, here in Soutern IL, are cracking me up. I was bored, today, on my day off so I went searching for other fish stores. Found this guy...a 3" Sea Robin...at a store aprox. 30 - 45 minutes away. They had 2 of them, labeled "Misc. Hawkfish". I paid $6.
