Lol have to take one. I've been dividing up girl scout cookies

How much girl scout cookies did you buy?

I have not and would not. It's your tank and your fish though.

It's really easy males will have streamers and females won't.

That must be fun you get all the cookies you want

Look up melves reef on YouTube his nano tang is huge, his tank is also quite large, so it could be possible for them to grow that big. Fish dont really ever stop growing, they just slow down to an almost non noticeable rate.

I may look into acrylic. I am not set on my tank yet. Its just glass I know max around 6ft

Generally (with many exceptions) fish grow to 90% of their max size during the first 10% of their lifespan.

So a Naso that grows to 18" and typically lives 60 years would grow to about 16" in the first 6 years.

They live that long!!! Thats cool. Yea I know unlikely in an aquarium but not if its done rt

Acrylic tanks are expensive and I don't know if they're worth that extra money they scratch if you look at it funny

That would be amazing to have the same fish for 60 years

Womans talk!!!! Lol
Ive heard that acrylic does scratch. It just seems w glass ur limited on length

 

[mauler]

Not at all my lfs has a 12'x4' 800g tank that's all glass.

 

[bang guy]

with glass it's the weight that becomes overwhelming for stock tanks. There is no limit with glass for custom tanks though.

 

[jay0705]

Is there a large cost diff w custom? Or r they fairly common now

 

[bang guy]

Yes, custom tanks are going to cost a lot more. Generally, they are better made and you get exactly what you want.

 

[jay0705]

Hmm. I like that idea. The excact tank you want.
