new tank

well i was just wondering what fish i should get foe a aggressive set up for a 30 gallon tank and how many fish can i fit in. thank you

i am sorry to bring in the bad news, but I personally wouldnt put any "Aggressive" fish in anything under a 55 gallon. this is for a lot of reasons, aggressive fish need territory and a 30gallon wont do it for space, they are messy eaters and when all their food goes on the substrate it will make the amonia rise a lot(but if the tank is bigger, that wont factor in as much). i would go with either a 55 but the best would be a 75. and also chose your fish wise, and let us know what you want to do.

yeah, i wouldnt do it...sorry you could get some cool fish though. they do need lots of space and messy eaters. try to get either a 55 or 75. if not just get some cool fish for the 30 like grammas, etc. later, bo

dlight & Grouperhead are giving you sound advice. With a 30 a gentle community set up with a few small fish and some nice rockwork would look outstanding. For aggressive I would go no less then a 65 as 55's and less are 12" deep tanks which are just to narrow for aggressive fish to be happy in.
