G'day.
Hello.
Accidental cross posts aside I haven't really had the pleasure peoples. I have a few year experience with marine fish but most has been with predator setups. Larger perch, eels, octopus and cuttle fish. Now tho I have some very nice live rock going in a few tanks, not a real reef yet but it's getting there sorta. few soft corals but mainly just nice coraline algae. Anyway 2 of my liverock 'friendly' tanks are 4 foot long and 1 &1/2 foot wide The other 2 are 3 foot long. Each tank has clownfish (solomon island percs), blennys, snails, I also have a coral beauty angel and an arc eye hawk fish in one of the 4's My question is what fish do you reef guys have in your tanks that are doing really well? I'm not after a formula but I am interested to know what has worked well for people. I use ample biological filtration on these tanks and water changes to control nitrates (on the beach here) While not a live rock purist I have had nice results before. And then woken up to see my new fish has eaten it all! I know I haven't specified what anemone/coral/featherworms ect but I wanna know the best behaved fish accross the board. :-) Must like clowns! |

Then all you have to worry about is whether it will be nice to your other fish. George Patterson All successes in conservation are temporary. All defeats are permanent. |

Hi there,
Nice to meet a friendly type on the list. I won't advise you about reefs as I don't know enough, but please ignore Stoutman the Troll. It doesn't speak for anyone but itself. :) Cindy |

Sharks are boring, rays a little more interesting.
I am happy with my mangrove jack. Pound for pound he's more predator than anything else I have. The moray eel tank is also very nice, low maintenence and bad enuf to be a 'boys' tank heh heh All my predators are in 6 foot by 2 foot by 2 foot tanks. the ones I want to add more fish too are the smaller tanks. But yea I kinda shoulda expected the return asshole call Which I did. WHich is why I don't mind you made it. See I'm not here for a flame war just a few suggestions cheers |

Wow, I've never seen of heard of a Pataecus fronto, the Red Indian Fish.
Awesome. So tell me about his mannerisms... very interesting. That had to cost you an arm or a leg, or both. :) All I've read is they are only around Australia so I guess it would be easier for you to get than I - Texas. But I couldn't find anything about their aquarium life. Not to mix up threads but I just want to say it all here... I had an Anthias as well. Beautiful fish. I just could not get it to eat. If you do buy one make the pet store feed it in front of you. That's not a guarantee but that will add to your chances. They are only caught in the ocean, not tank-born and raised from what I've read. Many times in the tank they don't eat ANYTHING. I tried it all and in the process spoiled my other critters so now I have to feed them more frequently. Not to ward you away from Anthias, but I agree you may want to wait a bit to get your tank more underway and your other new fish settled in so you can spend more time watching this guy. B my set up and short Anthias story: www.geocities.com/bryg30 "swarvegorilla" wrote in message u... Have my stocklist here, so it's all looking pretty good! if anyone can see probs with this list please gimme a heads up. :-) Bicolour Angel (bicolor) Blue damsel (coelestis) Clown wrasse (coris gaimard) Juv. Cleaner wrasse (dimidaitus) banana wrasse (chrysus) Gold/purple Anthias (Pseudanthias sqamipinnis) 4 F 1 M Red indian fish (Pataecus fronto) All of these fish have lept out and begged me to buy them A lotta wrasse I know but I have 4 tanks to spread them out in. My main problem is who outta these guys is gonna eat me liverock and corals? As I said before, aside from getting on with clowns, it would be good if they didn't destroy too much :) |

You know gorilla, you might actually have better look with a school over a
single anthias. They should be fine either way but the school will probably be more comfortable in a tank together, therefore eat. I've done some reading on them about this. Just make sure the vendor has been able to feed them in the tank. That up's your chances quite a bit. Good luck, Bryan "swarvegorilla" wrote in message u...

Bryan: Just a thought I was advised that a school of anthias, or chromis
will need allot of food because unlike other fish they are constantly moving in the water column and there for have a higher metabolism. Feeding the tank allot is not necessarily a good thing.

I also have no problem with fish only marine tanks.

OK I just scored a 6X2X2 to setup as a reef display.
heh heh cool hey going to hang some serious lighting over it, nice big chiller. going to have to make some 'base rock' though (garf type) as tis a lotta room and I want a nice arch in it. I can't for the life of me figure it out but people want to watch fish swim thru arches!! Anyway once I get it thru it's cycle I will have a school of the anthias You can view tank from 3 sides which is sweet too. for now though nothing but blue damsels, bi-colour and coral beauty angels, maybe a dotty back and some blue chromis for the 4 footers all excited now. been a while since I setup a new big salt tank. rokin ummm.... where do you guys post pics? heres alright or a binarie ng?

Not exactly the sort of tank I can let go slow. yea I know the nothing good happens fast call. But how about something average that goes cool over time? Decided today that while I go thru the liverock cycle I'm gonna stock this one with a moray eel. Have a cycled 450g otto cannister to throw on it, as well as about 25kg of cycled lava baserock and 400L (2/3) of water from a mature tank so not expecting much of a cycle even with a nice load of fresh liverock on top. still one eel should do it and the goldfish feeders shouldn't damage me algae to much :-) still this one has to look shmick and I want nice water before I blast it with light and add me wussy corals always liked feather worms too wanna do something funky with an arch and them could look good i recon |

Grasshopper, you still have much to learn and I much to teach. Let me focus on teaching and you on learning. Told you I wasn't going to ruin the dude's post. But things like the exchange above prove that you are a troll, and a prick. TROLL, prick, whatever, I can be either, neither will make me lose sleep. If I were a true Troll I'd argue with everyone, not just the assholes. I'm confident that whatever you have got your doctorate in, you have a great deal more knowledge than me about. However, having a doctorate has nothing at all to do with intelligence. It has to do with the will power or lack of motivation required to stay in school for many years. You stated that your doctorate is not in marine biology, or at least I drew that conclusion from very strong clues. So you have no more meaning to me than any other joker with a tank for 2 years. You have called me stupid, for no reason other than I don't agree with what you have to say. I have limited knowledge on aquaria, and so do you. But, I admit it, and you call me stupid. You further prove my point about Ph.D.'s being arrogant and pompous. You, by definition studied a very narrow subject matter, that's what Ph.D.s are for. So why do you come here with 2 years experience and pretend that you know everything, you clearly do not. The danger of giving you an advanced degree is it makes you think you're superman. When in reality you are a complete waste of airspace. The decent doctors who got their degrees to help the world, or to do something other than have a piece of paper that makes them seem smart, are fine by me, they don't brag, don't boast, don't even mention it. They have made a decision and lead their lives in a way that interacts with people well. you are just a douche bag with a piece of paper pinned to it. In the most recent post you've decided to stick your horribly large head into you state that I'm wrong for saying "Because I did it, you can do it" I clearly stated in every post that is not what I'm saying....I'm saying that it worked for me, and might work for him. I know I struggled to find the best way to do things when I moved. But wait....isn't that your message....I don't change water, so in every single situation it's ok for you not to change water. That could be reworded into...."Because I did it, you can do it"...wow you're a hypocrite too. Hitler...check Prick...check Asshole....check douche bag...check hypocrite...check doctor....um, I guess |
G'day.

Phase 1 almost complete!
Question!
Are you going to introduce them at the same time? I hope you get your video camera ready and prepare yourself for some astonishing gladiator fights... I hope you liked the movie Gladiator because the two blennies are going to give you a good show. Then the 26 damsels are going to define their territories soon. Since the damselfish are also anemonefish, they will see the clowns as fair competition. Please tape the outcome, it will be interesting to see if they all can live together in this aquarium. I may be wrong but you are up for a great battle. Keep us informed please. We can all learn a good deal about your initiative. "swarvegorilla" wrote in message u...
