Aquarium Advice Addict
So, I have a 5gallon freshwater tank with a betta. I want a larger tank, at least 30 gallons, and I'm pretty positive I want it to be a saltwater reef.
So, since I don't have the tank and I have never had a saltwater aquarium, I am in the planning/researching stage. I am looking for ideas of what I can put in my tank when I finally get it. Here's what I want so far:
Live rock and live sand
Yellow tail damsels -5
False percula clown- 1 unless they are better kept in pairs?
Royal gramma-1
Flame angel-1 (this would not be a fish I get right away. I'd wait awhile first.)
Maybe some kind of dartfish?
I really want a Blue cheek goby but 30 gallons won't be big enough will it? Do all gobies sift the sand like the blue cheek goby?
I want a fire shrimp, feather duster worm, scarlet hermit crab...
I feel like I'd like a snail or two but I don't want them to breed and then me have 100 snails...
For corals I want
Green star polyps
Zoanthids
Mushrooms
Something for the clown to host
That really cool alien finger coral I saw at the store. I don't know what it's called. I'll take a picture next time I'm at the store.
What else could I get? I want a peaceful community with everything living in harmony. I want bright color and interest. Any info is greatly appreciated. I want to make informed decisions when I'm ready to get this set up and I want to avoid costly impulse buys.
(please excuse any typos that may be present above.)
