[matt b]

[nicetry]

snowflake eel, dwarf lion, indigo hamlet or maroon clown.

 

[grouperlover]

anemone, colt coral maybe, polyps, mushrooms. chromis, small angels, butterflys, tangs

Eels are going to get huge over 6 months or longer, but not that near in the future. IMO volitan and yellow tang and maybe some other tiny things.

i was thinkin maybe like a dwarf golden maray i think thats what its called and maybe a dwarf lion and a maroon

 

[hammerhed7]

could do a dwarf aggressive tank with a dwarf lion, maroon clown, blue spot puffer, hamlet, flame angel etc, I know a guy who has one and it is a great looking tank.

 

[stdreb27]

get a frog fish, they can stay in smaller tanks.

I like Hammerhed's list the best...I don't think Butterflys or Tangs would be good choices in a 55.

Don't do it Matt, Blue Ribbons are cool, but they are estimated to have around a 2% survival rate in captivaty, plus they are much more reclusive than a SFE....I would add a little puffer to your list of three, Valentini or Blue Spot.

 

[matt b]

ok ill go with the sfe... but im gonna get a 75 bcus there having a 1$ a gal sale

 

[shinobi9119]
