Unfortunately, I am unable to do a chiller. I live in an apartment and would have to make some electrical changes. My maintenance guys say I can't do it.

Filefish! Orange Spotted! You can do it!!!! lol
Wartskin Angler .. I'm on a kick with these guys because my LFS just got a whole bunch of very, very colorful babies in. I was sooooo tempted to set up another tank!
Is it going to be a reef?
The orange spotted filefish scares me (I don't want to kill it).
I could do a wartskin angler.
As of now, the plan is FOWLR (but does a rock wall count as LR
). I might do some non-photosynthetic corals, since the tank just has stock lighting.

I don't see why you couldn't do like a little Aqua Euro 1/13 hp chiller like they sell on this site. It's only 110v / 1.5 amp. There's no reason why you can't run one on a standard 15 amp circuit as long as it's not over loaded.

It would be pushing it. Half the apartment plus my DT is on the same circuit.

What about a Japanese Red Rooster Pygmy Waspfish . the
Planted with calupa and macro algea
I do like that fish and it is very different from what I have. I also think a planted would be a good contrast from my reef.

pair of helfrichi firefish, and some platinum clowns
That would make me want to go reef again. I do like the helfrichi firefish though.

how about a hawaiian themed tank? the helfrichi firefish are usually from hawaii, and stocking up the tank with hawaiian zoas (usually people eaters) would be nice
