    share your triggerfish!

    It's been years since I had striped bass, I caught one 21 and a half inches a few years ago. Kind of like salmon from what I remember, the wild caught salmon not farmed raised and fed with red dye.. 21 inches was the minimum length, just barely legal to keep

    No clean up crew no Inverts mean dirty tank?

    I'm undecided if I should have sand or not. Do you think sand makes it more easy to keep the tank clean? Or Harder?

    No clean up crew no Inverts mean dirty tank?

    In some ways I regret adding the sand before I know what I will be adding for fish. Hover it will all most likely be removed over time if I use a gravel vacuum (Only 25 pounds) so I will just grab some snails and hope for the best... If I decide to go down the route.
