I know I can look at many different websites taht tell me if a fish is easy or not to have or a min tank size for said fish but I want to hear from people that actually have SW tanks. I say this becuase one site may say the fish is a great easy to care for fish while another will say its a little harder to take care of.
I have a 75g tank with sand for the substrate, some rocks, nothing too fancy and no LR. I curently have 2 damsels ad a clown in teh tank and would like to add some more obviously but with my lack of experioence I don't want to atart adding fish only to find out they won't coesist together or are too hard for a beginer to keep. I would like to add a lawnmower blenny, scooter blenny, a colorful tang if possible, maybe a snowflake eel, yellow watchman, a butterfly if possible, a small trigger and another I think I saw that I liked was called a longhorn cow fish. Granted this list is mainly of types of fish I like and I understand taht I can't put them al into a single 75g tank so I'm asking for assistance from anyone wiling to answer. What would be a decent stock list for a 75g tank for a newb (yep, I admit to being a newb when it comes to sw tanks)? My PH is right at 8.0, amm, trites and trates are all at 0. I do regular water changes with about 14 gallons each time. Snails so far have been a mystery for me as I cannot keep them alive. I have 2 in teh tank now that I haven't been able to check on as I've been at work but in teh past tehy would die in a couple of hours. I was using tap water but am now using a RO/DI unit
for all my water changes. I did add Culpisorb to the filter in an attemppt to clean out any copper from when I used the tap water to fill the tank. However snails are not a necessity if there are fish options to control the algae growth.
Sorry for the long winded message, I just want to get this stuff right as early as possible.
