    i was going to make it a fresh water seeing that its not reef ready and im not going to use it for a sump but someone above had mentions a zoa garden and i was asking would i need all the filtration like a normal reef tank with live stock..Just no live stock ..coral only..would it work.


    and FYI I LOVE THE FW PUFFERS...i don't know why i didn't think of that.So with puffers can you have more then one arnt they mean little devils to other fish or are they ok with each other?

    Yeah I'm pretty sure you can, someone else might want to confirm that though. Just make sure it's planted heavily.

    yeah you can easily have more than one, be careful with the dwarfs though they may get gobbled up by the larger ones.

    Someone told me they will attack plecos. What do you do for an algae eater?

    My dwarf never touched my plecos, or really any of my other fish for that matter. But when there's a ton of them they might hurt it...

    Went to lfs. Guy there says he has luck keeping diffrebt kinds of puffers in one tank. Figure 8 , leapords, and green spotted. Might lose one or two when the establish pecking order but should be an interesting tank

    yeah, awesometank! then you can get a larger tank and fill it halfway with brackish fwater and do a sort of mudskipper fiddler crab beach auarium. that would be awesome!!
