    that is to much fish in a 240 IMO! a full grown naso needs 300 gallon tank min. and those eels are more docile and not for an aggressive tank.

    haha dont get ahead of yourself. a naso would be perfectly fine in that tank. it would have excess room full sized! all those fish would fit great in there. and eels have a perfect place in a predator tank. its not like the fish will pici=k on it it gets almost 4 feet long!

    try one puffer,a wrasse, a triggerfish, and a arc eye or freckled hawkfish would be cool IMO!
    maybe a banana eel since they could add more color and bvb-etf-luva recommends them!

    i have kept 3 banana eels in all my tanking experience. i know a thing or two about them. they easily reach feet. there is only a handfull of eels that dont get over 2 feet full sized and those are unbelievably expensive. even the snowflake eels get 3 feet long.

    i dont think you understand that this is a 240 gallon tank, putting only four fish in that would make it look completely empty without corals. a fowlr doesnt have any corals so you have more of a selection of fish.
