Brians 46 BF Tank-New Adds 12/11 w/pics

Royal gramma
Cardinal

I really like this guy, know some people that have them and they have not been a problem. Very pretty fish IMO.

Saltwater Aquarium Fish for Marine Aquariums: Chalk Bass

Love the wrasses too, with the exception of the sixline.

Longfin Fairy Wrasse

Fire shrimp.
Any of the Fan worms, and coco worms it you do not have any fish that will eat them.
Pin cushion/tuxedo urchin.

 

Thanks for the great suggestions. I like the Chalk Bass and it's not a fish I see very often. I'm planning on a Bangai Cardinal just cuz I like they way they just SIT in one spot in the tank. Kinda cool

What kinda wrasse do you'll think would be best. I'd like to get one that won't consume all my pods as I would like to get a mandarin in the future.

I like the carpenter's Flasher and McCosker's Flasher a lot.

 

Those are both good wrasses, with your tank size and the sump you will have no problems.

I love the Canary Wrasse, never had a problem with them eating any shrimps. Was the only fish that ate pyramid snail for me. I hear they are really good at eating flatworms as well. Kept mine in a large mixed reef successfully for many years.

They will all eat pod though.

 

Thanks, I will look at the Canary Wrasse. I'm aware that they all eat pods. I even see my purp firefish hunting for pods on the glass. I had a sixline in my previous tank that ate pods all day long. I guess it will be a gamble with any wrasse whether or not it desimates my pod population. LOL

 

Yes I figured you knew.

You know what is strange ? I had to banish my damsel to the back of the tank because the clowns were beating the crap out of him ( go figure ). Now I have far too many pods, guess he was eating them, but now I can not add anything to eat them because of the clownfish, darn

 

LOL those clowns of yours sure are viscious! HAHA Don't feed the clowns for a week or so. Maybe they'll work on the pods for a few days.

 

New Adds 12/10

Well, I hit the big 30 yesterday. I got to take a trip to the LFS for my b-day and picked up a pair of Ocellaris Clowns, 1-B&W and 1-reg Oce. They make a cute couple! I also picked up a Blood Red Shrimp and a frag of Birds Of Paradise.

I named these two Mork & Mindy
