I'm getting a tank in about 3 months and i'm looking at a reef/community tank.
i want to get the correct amount of live rock, and LS.
i will have three power heads so that circulation is not a problem.
the tank comes with lighting, a unit made up of three fluros.
im hoping to have a myriad of corals, and a Bubble tip Anemone
i want to get to the stage where i have
1x maited pair of CBS
1x coral beauty Angelfish
2x clowns
2-4x Lyertail Anthias
1x Oriole Angelfish
2x bi-coloured blenny
1x watchman gobbie
2x firetail gobbie
1x sailfin tang
and maybe at sometime a copperband butterfly.
1. wat size tank would i need to care for these fish??
2. how much LR for each gallon is required??
3. how much LS??
4. wat type of fluros am i gonna need to make sure corals get the right amount??
and wat sort of clean up crew is gonna be most desirable??
i know these questions are asked alot. i have spoken to a few blocks at my LFS but i just want to get a broad understanding.
