You can have as many as you want... the problem is keeping them fed. You'll need to provide algae on a clip. Or seaweed.

Great point! I think we will do
1 cleaner
1 peppermint
1 emerald crad
Snails and hermits,
And maybe a fire shrimp much later on, as they cost quite a bit

[SwimsWithFish]

30 lbs? Sound good? Or maybe 35? 40? 100? Hahah lol jk

[SwimsWithFish]

Haha sounds good. You can go all he way up to 60 lbs if you want. Personally I think it looks best with 45-50 but with 30 you should be able to make a nice center island

Hmm 45 eh? Thats a bit of dough!

[SwimsWithFish]

Yeah it would be about 100$.... But 30 is ok!!!

[Gboy66]

Is it possible to add live rock later? Because i think we could find 60$ before this person sells out. I dont want to cause a mini cycle though!

[SwimsWithFish]

You would have to cure it for a couple of weeks in a separate container before adding it so that there isn't any die off to start a mini cycle.

[Nu-Nu the eel]

Haha well looks like the tank wont be set up for a while!! Hah :/

[SwimsWithFish]

Lol it's the godfather. So wait, you guys want to add lr now and then slowly add it as time goes on?

[SwimsWithFish]

Basically you can add as much dry Rick whenever you want because it doesn't have any die off.

Live Rick has to be cured befor added to an established system.

I think well do that!! 20 lbs of live to start the cycle, then add another 20 of dry later!!!

[SwimsWithFish]

Sounds good! Dry is only about 2$/lb online.

[Nu-Nu the eel]

Haha i really want to talk like him for the rest of the day! Haha :p so, the guy i am buying the tank from said that once our tank is established he would give us 2 bangaii cardnal fish!! haha not sure if we will keep them tho, cuz it sounds like he doesnt even want the fish!

[SwimsWithFish]

Awesome! You'll have to be careful because there aggresive.
