What should i do with a 10g?

[belly up]

i found a 10g i the basment and i set it up and everything works great, but know i need some ideas on what to do with it? any suggestions?

 

[cjason3041]

add sand, saltwater, LR, and turn on!!!!

 

[belly up]

i mean what should i put in the tank as far as livestock?

 

[cjason3041]

inverts....maybe a goby....or a firefish and a clown goby...yah i like that!!!
or what might be fun is to upset the tang police and put in a tang :hilarious :hilarious

 

[belly up]

i was thinking maybe just keep it an invert tank. but im not sure about anything yet.
a tang

BORING! Why does everyone assume that you can't put anything bigger than a half an inch in a 10-gallon the 5-gallon rule is dumb.People only say it to make sure other people have not as nice tanks

I doubt that this hobby would be any fun if we coulsn't put much in our tanks.I say go with a Seahorse/Pipefish tank

i agree with ya i have a 3 gal pico and i have had no problems out of my tank, i have a small clown, a cleaner shrimp, some snails, some yellow polyps, some star coral, a couple of blue legs, a xenia and i have had zero problems, the clown will move to a bigger home ofcourse but as of now hes cool
so have fun with it by all means

Maybe you can frag it into other 10 gallon tanks?

mantis shrimp? I do believe there are a few varieites of them that stay small

 

[team2jndd]

too small for most mantis. Deffinately a peacock which is the one most people want.

 

[belly up]

yea too small for a mantis and i would be afraid of it breaking the glass. but ive always wanted a peacock mantis shrimp but ill wait for an acrilic. well i dont know what to do with this tank????
