Have you done much research on what fish you will want? The 40 will give you a lot more options and could house a lot more. Also, bowfronts can look...
I have a feeling you'd be replacing the filters much more often though. Honestly if you wanna save money, either work on having a giant sump somehow...
There are a lot of good things that when used incorrectly can cause problems. It's why you have to research properly and thoroughly. Carbon also can...
I hope you don't plan on keeping that eel - your tank isn't anywhere near big enough. I'd trade it in for your next fish.
Could work for fish only, but reefs need added calcium etc in the salt mix, I think.
When did you add the blennies and when did you add the shrimp? They could just be hiding. Also, I assume you checked your tank's parameters. If they...
Also it's a puffer so it will eat any invertebrate it can. Huge snails pretty much are the only cleanup crew you can have.
I wonder which personality they have. imo not worth the money though. You could get some a few pairs of more exotic and colorful fish for that price...
I meant for big active fish for tangs. Probably should have been more clear about that. I've never thought flakes alone was enough for tangs, unless...
Get some frozen food like brine shrimp. Flakes really aren't a very good food source. I'd also feed them once a day with the frozen, and put the...
Giant Hawkfish are black and white, and I also feel like I've see this fish recently either in store or in diver's den and it was labeled a hawkfish....
The green spotted puffer won't have enough room to turn or really move about in a 55 gallon tank when it's an adult. Think of a 6" football moving...
I'd say even bigger than 70. They are social and tend to not do well unless in groups. So that's 3+ fish that are about a 8-12" each.
I have a girlfriend. And most people getting the goldfish don't realize how big they get. You are basically buying a golden retriever puppy for a kid...
If that's you're attitude toward this then I wouldn't get him a tank. If your son doesn't understand that a fish is too big and he can't have it,...
imo I'd go with something other than goldfish. Most of them get huge and there isn't much of a selection to choose from for your kid. He might want...
I'd first put something in like a goby. A clown is in the swimming space of a puffer more and might nip at him which could provoke him into biting...
Yeah you need to wait. The reason why the parameters are ok is because there is no bioload in there yet. You need to build up the bacteria with...
Actually what's in goldfish cause lots of problems for saltwater fish. Even if it's just for a treat they are harmful. Not sure how much of a joke...
I don't think it's necessary to take them out since they are 2". I wouldn't get anything else until you have made the upgrade though, and you'll need...
