[surfinusa]

a lion or some tangs or a grouper would be nice

 

[babyb]

what would e a good tang or grouper, dont groupers get huge

 

[tripleshot]

What type of puffer do you have and what type of eels do you have? Also what are you useing for filtration and do you have a skimmer? The fish that you have allready are messy eaters and you might have to much of a bio load by adding another fish. And yes most groupers do get to big for a 125.

some tangs are sailfins,hippos,yellows,or a small naso also a cool grouper would be a miniatus grouper they only get 12'' so that could fit in a 125 gallon

I would not suggest the naso, they get up to 18 in, too large for your tank. But the rest of the fish i recommend also.

A harlequin tusk wrasse would be awesome

 

[surfinusa]

what about a large angel

 

[babyb]

i know thast they have 2 diffrent types of nasos, and some kind of a n angel, its bright yellow with a blue mouth i think its really preaty

 

[surfinusa]

sounds like a flagfin angel :thinking:

 

[babyb]

thats it, its huge, and really preaty, thay also have some awsome v. lions that look like something from an aquarium, they are really dark and just awsome

 

[sea slug]

get a marine betta
marine bettas are bangin :jumping:

 

[babyb]

hahahaha that is really funny, lastnight i had a dream that i was at the fish sale and i got a marine betta

 

[cougar]

I have been told not to put together large angels and lions. The angels would pick on the fins of the lions.

I second the suggestion of adding the Harlequin Tusk. Great fish, lots of color, and readily available in the summer months. Try to get a specimen from Austalian if possible.
Opinions on this board will differ as to whether or not you should put a lionfish in with a puffer. A combination you will surely have to keep a close eye on.
