:help: I have recently decided to switch from fresh to salt water. I will be going to a 30 gallon tank, what fish are best for this size keeping in mind color, temperment, and my sons love for finding nemo. Also can anyone tell me what fish are in the movie. My own research has proven a little lacking. Thanks

how much room does a (blue hippo tang need?) i was thinking about getting one in the future

hi pate
as i have read from many many posts here and even read in books, any tang will require 125 gal + tank. some people have gotten away with smaller (55-75), though i dont know how long their tangs actually lived.
hth

I like firefish alot, I think they are so pretty. They are very peaceful, but you have to be careful because they are jumpers. I personally like the purple firefish best A good way to find out about a fish youlike is to type the fish name into a search engine,(yahoo, goggle etc.) and a ton of websites will come up. Good luck and welcome to the board!!
