Some of my fish

Since I'm new I thought I'd post a few pics of what I keep.

The salty stuff:






The discus:






and my Oscar:

 

Very nice fish

How big is your tank? That gold rim/powder gray will likely beat the living daylights out of your yellow tang once it gets a little bigger.

 

Hello, welcome......I am not into fresh water but those Discus are pretty. The salt water tank looks small, how large is it? Did I spot a Coral Beauty? They are one of my all time favorites.

 

Wow, great picture Shelle, thanks for sharing

Yes that is a coral beauty. It's my favorite one too. And the gold rim already started beating the hell out of the yellow tang, so I found the yellow a new home. The tank is 53g but it's deep rather than long. I'm switching over to a standard 55g so the tang will have a bit more length for swimming.

 

Yes.......that was where I was going. If you use a sump and/or refugium you can get by with minimal live rock in the display to open the tank up for swimming. Some will probably ring in here and say; "hey why not go for a 90 gal.?"

 

The tang is still fairly small and I was told it stays smaller than some of the other tangs. He is very active as well. If he does get too big I will sell him. And as for the 90g, I'm using a 55 because I already have one and with buying a new house, there just isn't any money for a new tank too!
