Starting over again.

i did a 25% change. How else can i get the nitrates down?

 

sixline, goby(and a pistol shrimp), and maybe .......

 

So i think i've decided the lineup for my nano cube. tell me what you think.

Fire goby,
Lawnmower blenny,
Eibli's angel.

clean up crew,
Turbo snails,
hermits,
sally lightfoot crab.

 

With those bottom dwellers.. better make sure they have plenty of food.

 

^ oh ya, they do... Plenty of algae and microscopic plankton, plus what ever the fish don't eat.

 

Sweet... sounds good.. I have an orange spotted watchman goby.. love it...

 

Got a lawnmower blenny, royal gramma, 3 turbo snails, 2 scarlet hermits, and a sally lightfoot crab today. they're all doing great so far.

 

Is this really a $100 1.5 Inch Fish?
It better do backflips..

 

So here is my final line up for the cube, as far as fish go.

Lawnmower blenny
Royal Gramma
Midnight/nox angel
True naked percula clown (maybe)

Thoughts? Advice?

 

the only fish i ever saw do a backflip was one trigger that would do that and turn upside down to beg for food.

blennies are jumpers, assuming the top is cover you may find it in you filter a couple times.
royal grammas can be mean i would add it lastish.
any angels may nip at corals and clams. although these are "generally" reef safe, if you have bad luck at gambling i would choose a different fish

i would like a snowflake perc better i think the naked ones look kinda bare you may as well be getting a clown goby. i should percs arent my favorite fish as they just stay in the same place and wiggle(i dont know what it is about the percs as i just find there wiggle alot more iritating then other clowns)

feed that sally well as the have been know to take a swipe at small fish especially in small tanks
