What to buy?

That's a good question. My LFS keeps about 4 at a time in the same 20 gal, and they swim together in a small school. If I did buy some, they'd probably get along. Especially if they were a mated pair.

 

not if there paired or were both in 1 school of firefish

 

yeah exactly

 

whoa... you actually kept parameters in check? and i hate CBS because mine killed all my shrimp and almost killed my chromis! he ate the head off of my peppermint shrimp XD

 

I know! I've had mine for 5 years. With it's arms stretched put, it's prolly got a width of 6 inches. it kills my peppermints too. Now I'm getting aiptasia again after 2 years of having none. Anyways, when I was 7-8, I didn't know about parameters. I didn't do water changes. For 2 years! It was a miracle. The only death in the 5 gal was a serpent star that died of shock. After that I got a grounding probe.

 

wow thats epic

 

Now that I looked back on it, it seems impossible. All I did was top-offs. And you think that a 5 gallon would be a hard tank to keep clean. now back to the subject of this thread....

 

you must be a lucky bastard XD (im only kidding but you are pretty lucky)

 

Heheheh. hmm... I was thinking of a flame angel, but that'd probably overstock it again. Besides the sail fin, my Hawkfish is the largest at 3-1/2 inches.

 

flame angel might also nip corals so be careful if u go for a dwarf angel
