french, queen, passer, asfur, annularis, now those are easy to keep when considering full sized angels imho

perhaps your right. considering he initially wanted an emperor shouldn't a majestic be no less difficult?

I had a 10 gallon quaritine tank that im buying a stand for and going to set it up for 2 b&w percula clowns with an anemone. Will the 2 go ok in a 10g?

Looking at people that have octupus gave me the idea of turning my 125 into a octupus tank. Im going to buy a tank hood for the 125g and build a screen in the back and secure door, duct tape all open areas, and tie or latch doors to the hood. Ill use my 10g as a place to hold the octupus live food and Im upgrading to a 20g and still get an anemone and 2 black and white perculas. The tank must cycle at least 3 months before and octupus can get in there so Im thinking I can get one early December. What sort of lighting is required? Also the thing that makes the water movement, the one in my 125 is shooting out the dense water that looks like tiny sand, the area its aimed at the sand spread out, and it makes air bubles which i heard are bad for fish. Would duct tape secure it partialy underwater to aim it somewhere else?

Ok,Im sure Im very annoying going from one type of tank to the next, but there are so many possibilities. Okay my mom is going to get rid of the tank if i dont have any fish in there by december :help:
. So I need help. Forget about the clowns, the angel, and any other fish I mentioned before. Im having red algae problems realy bad, covering most of my rock work. Is it because the biowheels are old? There is no lighting on the tank, my room light is hardly on and the blinds are closed with a little light but no direct sunlight. I need to take care of this before I start getting into fish. I have a month to get this tank into shape. Tomorrow im going to do a water change. Ill test the ph, saltanity, ammonia, etc. I couldn't today because I was to busy. Need help. After I solve this then I need to think about fish. Im doing research on possibilities I have in mind. Help please!

Okay nobody answered my question. So now I thought of a fish that is possible. Marbled Cat Shark.
Minimum tank I've heard 70-100g. Ive got a 125g. They need plenty of space to swim so I can remove most of the rocks(all that are effected) and leave those that aren't. Haven't heard on anything on requirements for lighting. Please answer if you know anything helpful. This hobby is addictive and Id hate to leave it. My mom is very serious and mad at me. :help:
