    yea i know this is prob gonna end bad but ill go ahead and ask before i perform.

    would it be possible to have a 30 gal split in half with and osteridii mantis on one side and an O. havanensis on the other side? with lps and softie corals? just wondering since corals arent really agreeing with my 55 like i planned... and i though this would be cool looking also.

    thanks.

    Wouldn't be a problem at all as long as you can provide the flow for the corals on both sides. I plan on making my 10 gallon mantis tank into an sps dominant nano asap just so she feels more at home.
    The only draw back I can see is that if the tank becomes crowded it will mean less time to enjoy her visually cuz she'll have more places to hide and hunt that can't be seen.
