    Have you ever been to a large aquarium. Maybe at Seaworld or Disneyland and get a perspective of how these fish grow. The other thing is their demeanor changes as they get older. You can have a nice tank with a tang and an angel and a trigger and a puffer and a wrasse, a couple of clowns for starters and watch them grow and learn. Go slow and let them grow.;)

    true i like the idea of an eel tho just because of its movement and it is something interesting. i still dont know which triggers would do the best as far as size is concerned could you help me with that? also what order should i put the fish in?

    So if i wanted to do an eel what would i need to take off the list? Also i know i have asked about the clown trigger but still want to know if it would be a good choice with the humu trigger. also what skimmer would be good to use? i dont have much money for one but i still need some ideas that are around 200-300. thanks again

    does anybody think that a clown trigger and humu trigger will be ok or will the clown be to big for the tank. if it will be to big which other trigger do you suggest. I also wanted to get an eel, most likely a snowflake but it sounds like it would be too much of a bioload because with the 2 triggers im also planning a dogface puffer. im not so set on having a tang but i would like one. what other smaller fish could i put in the tank? i just need as much input as anyone can give on this so any help is appreciated
