Wow its been a minute since I've been in the forums! So long that it actually took me a lil bit to figure out my username and password! Now that im back tho, im sure ill get addicted again, just like any other time I've been here! Lol
ANYWAYS..... im thinking about adding a couple fish to my 65 gallon reef tank. Im going to try and stay away from the expensive type, because it seems like im always fine, until I try getting brave and adding that $60 fish and then they all get ich and I have to start all over again. I also wanna keep it a very calm tank because im tired of worrying if my semi aggressive fish are going to butt heads with each other, or pick on the more calm fish.
So here's what I have now: full grown engineer goby (or at least I think he's full grown, he's bout 1-1.5 foot long but he spends so much time in his tunnels that its hard to tell exactly), a yellow watchman goby, and a bar goby. Sensing a theme yet? Lol No im not going for an all goby tank, it just happened to work out that way. But they are a pretty peaceful group so I really wouldn't even mind an all goby tank.
I want to eventually get a mandarin, so any other fish that eats copepods is not going to go in. I need to save those for the mandarin! I wont be getting that for awhile tho. I have had my tank set up for a few years now, but I still don't feel its ready for a mandarin.
And I also get suggestions of a royal gramma alot since they are inexpensive and peaceful for the most part, but im just not a big fan of them. I don't know why. They just kind of bore me for some reason! Lol
But besides that, im open to suggestions! What do u think?
