planning a new aggressive setup

[jim27]

I'm in the planning stages of an aggressive set-up. I have a 48"x13"x22" tank. I would like to keep triggers,lionfish,and eels in it. How would this work:
1-2 triggers(don't know what kind)
1 dwarf lion
1 snowflake eel
What about filtration for it? Right now I have a magnum 350 canister that I can use. Any other fish you think would be good?

I havent updated my profile in a while. The 180 is already set up and cycling and I just got the 55 today. And yes I'm planning on having a skimmer for this tank.

an undulate and an eel will work. good filtration is a must. Good luck

i have a 55 with a undulated and i tried to put a panther grouper in there and theres no panther grouper my big boy is gone ,but just remember don,t put a undulated with other fish unless the other fish are bigger , in others words if you want this trigger with other get it small as small as possible but remember when bigger he will destroyed everything good luck !

you can have fish with an undulate just as long as the undulate is introduced after all the others. try to get the undulate as small as possible. if you want to introduce fish after him go for big fish like groupers.

i just thougth he would need a bigger tank than a 55

YAan undulated would get to big for a 55. I would never get an undulated with other fish though, it's a bad idea. If I had to do it, I'd add an extremely small one, maybe an inch and a half, then fish around 4 or 5 in. But undulateds can NOT be kept in a 55 gallon tank, they get to big.
