Zach's 20 gal long build

[zacheyp]

do you think i can keep two types of hawkfish together

[carey]

I wouldnt do it. Theres so many different fish you don't have to double up on them lol

[redsea]

I don't think so. They would probably fight.

[zacheyp]

ok, so carey and red sea i have room for 2 fish, you know im getting corals, 2 clowns a gramma and a longnose, which 2 fish do u get?

[zacheyp]

also, i know i have fairly weak lighting, but here are the corals i am getting
Saltwater Aquarium Corals for Marine Reef Aquariums: Giant Green Polyp Duncanopsammia - Aquacultured
Saltwater Aquarium Corals for Marine Reef Aquariums: Nano Mushroom Pack

any other ideas on corals

[zacheyp]

do i have enough lighting for the first coral?

[zacheyp]

is it ok to add 8-10 nano corals at once, i dont want to pay for shipping more than once

[redsea]

I would say yes, but I am not sure.

[zacheyp]

if you could choose your 2 favorite fish to add, which would they be?

[redsea]

I would add a Firefish and a Clown Goby, LOL.

[zacheyp]

i am coming to like the fire fish

Woohoo, LOL, I really like them. There are three different options.



Dartfish

[zacheyp]

i likw the purple one, would he fight with a gramma

[zacheyp]

gramma or firefish, which 1 would u ad first, also, is it ok to add the 8-10 nano corals if my clowns are already in the tank

[Gregcoyote]

My gramma (very old) fought with the new purple firefish until the gramma disappeared. Not pointing fingers...but they hated each other.

[zacheyp]

do you think i could get both, also, can i add 8-10 nano corals/ frags at the same time

[Greenturtle]

There are actually a few more dartfish that look like fire fish, but different colored. There is a 'zebra dartfish' that is green with orange stripes. I love mine There is also a completely royal blue one called the 'blue durgeon dartfish' I think. I probably got the name wrong :/

[zacheyp]

are you saying they would be better with the gramma

[Greenturtle]

I think the normal fire goby and the 2 that I mentioned would not fight with the gramma.
