agrresive fish for 29g

[arsen_36]

i recently bought a 29g and was wondering what type of aggresive fish i could keep. i realy want an eel.

 

[reeftank27]

only eel you can get is a dwarf moray. You can get a dwarf lion, Purple pseudo. You are limited on the fish you can get with that small of a tank. Im sure others with chime in with other fish you can get, thats all that is coming to mind that is a agressive.

ok so i can only keep one dwarf lion and one eel (snow flake eel)

I might not put a dwarf lion with the eel, thats a VERY high bioload for 29 gallons. How about some damsels?

 

[arsen_36]

ok so no eel

. then what could i keep with a dwarf lion? i currently have a falco hawkfish and a 3 stipe damsel in a 10g. could i keep them with a dwarf lion?

i know someone can help me out.....

the eel will be ok i had one in a 30 gallon tank it was about 2 feet but we got rid of it but i would do is a
dwarf lion
snowflake eel
and an assortment of damsels and that would probably all you can have

 

[surfinusa]

or you can do a frogfish that would be awesome

so keeping my hawkfish is a no no?

 

[lion_crazz]

I would just do the dwarf lion (fuzzy dwarf), falco hawk, and 3 stripe damsel. That would be an appropriate bioload. Any kind of eel will be pushing it.

can i keep a dwarf lion with non agressive fish? like perc clowns, gobies ect. ?

 

[lion_crazz]

Yep. Fuzzy dwarfs are pretty peaceful; just make sure they cannot fit the fish in their mouth.

 

[arsen_36]

cool! thanks for all the help guys!! so the final conclusion would be.... 1 dwarf lion, 1 hawk fish, and ....... uh 2 perc clowns? maybe

what about dwarf zebra lions? are they as docile as the fuzzies?

 

[wanabebell]

maroon clowns would give you a bigger agressive taste than percs

Dwarf zebras a little more aggressive, if you ask me.

This is what I'd do also. Or... remove the damsel and add your 2 clown fish. I wouldn't add a maroon clown b/c they themselves can get large(around 6").

im just gonna go with the clowns then i guess.
