thanks i'll keep that in mind. otherwise all fish will be comapitble together? will an anemone survive? or will it get eaten?

yeah i think i have decided on my final list huma huma radiata lion blue hippo tang snowflake eel dogface puffer clowns (what species will go with all these?)

i'd like to get a huma and a radiata lionfish and possibly a dogface. (and a pair of clowns and a blue tang) whats everyones thoughts on this?

i am hearing more good than bad about humas and i have wanted one before i even got my tank. question is how do you pick a good one? eg what do you look for in the trigger? what are good signs that show he isnt going to wipe out every single moving thing in your tank?

yeah it would be nice hatessushi. for me its been very informative and its been good to know that the fish i WOULD have bought would have overloaded the bio and if surviving that they would more than likely have killed each other costing me even MORE $$$$. so its good for everyone that a site...

well as i said before im in no great rush. but my tank is looking awfully empty. i may have to get a little blue or green fish to give it some life

off the topic a bit i was thinking if you add more LR during a cycle will it prolong the cycle? also my ammonia has gone up (with addding some LR) but the trites and trates have not. is this right?

yeah i was actually considering the clean up crew in the sump. would they be as effective in there though? i think i am going to scrap the eel and more than likely the puffer. still not sure lol im not ready for fish yet but i thought i'd do a bit of research beforehand.

firefish as in goby?

i am thinking i might purchase some damsels towards the end of the cycle just to get a bit of life in the tank and also to make sure i can work the tank right lol instead of spending hundreds on a fish only to have it die on me. i've also got a fish list i am looking at (short listed) in this...
