I kind of like the Humu Humu Trigger or the Assassi.

Originally Posted by AW2x3 What do you mean, what do I mean? Well ive been researching the blue line and everyone and every where ive read has said they are aggressive but no mentionings of it needing to be a species only set up for him. at the LFS i used to work for we had a Queen Trigger and...

Originally Posted by AW2x3 Red Coris and Lunar will NOT be ok together. Red Coris really do deserve a bigger tank, as well. They're big, fast and bold. It really wont matter anyway.

Why do you paint it black instead of using a black background paper?

What all is involved in the curing process?

I will be getting a 180gallon tank here fairly soon, so I am trying to pre plan out the fish I want. I know its going to be an aggressive fish only tank. What Ive started so far on the list is: 1 Blue Line Trigger 1 Snowflake Eel 1 Emperor Angel 1 Red Coris Wrasse Now what else would go well in...

Originally Posted by Jmick It depends on what you want to do with your tank. I am not a fan of tanks that are piled from top to bottom with live rock. I have about 130lbs in my 120 mixed reef (going all sps) and there is a lot of room for my fish to swim and it allows me to get creative with...

Originally Posted by Catawaba Take a good look at it. And smell it! It should have some coralline algae, worms, bugs, etc....and should smell fresh and clean. It should, IMO, have interesting shapes and be 'light' for it's size. You don't want to spend money on a brick do ya? What about...

Originally Posted by Jmick I'd be willing to bet that if you are buying from a local shop and buy at least 50lbs they will sell at a discount. About how much LR would be good for a 180gallon tank?

Originally Posted by wax32 If you buy online, it isn't "cured". Exactly I am too lazy to cure it myself. Ill pay the extra dollar or so to buy cured.

How hard are these to keep? I imagine pretty difficult? Are there any that stay relatively smaller? If so how small would you say? Can i get some husbandry info on these suckers.

Cured LR from LFS is 7.95 a lb. Is this a good price?

Humu Humu trigger? Isnt a 29g a little small for such a fish?
