It may be possible for you to have a fuzzy dwarf lion fish in your tank. I don't know what you have but FDLF are reef compatible. What kind of fish if any do you have?

Your starfish, snail, crabs and tang should be ok with a fuzzy dwarf lion fish. At least ours doesn't eat them :)
 
I also want a mandarin fish if I ever go over to the marine side. I would need an old refugium.
 
wow ok, i will go and check them out online, guessing being a dwarf means smaller mouth,lol
 
Who needs fantasy football when we can have fantasy Aquatic life?

Ok Emerald 76, I want dolphins and sea turtles, too with a cool reef but also giant clams and a Galapagos Land turtle mated pair and a Japanese style Koi pond with hundreds of different Koi.

Just putting that out there LOL!

Koi are a goal that can be reached, they wont cost you alot. You can buy very nice koi here starting from like 22-1000 Euros. And dolphins are no fish=p,
 
Thanks tukker, your kind encouragement is appreciated. :)

I started already and have four young butterfly Koi and four little goldfish in a pre-formed 125 Gal pond, waiting to move to a different house and I will build a in ground pond for the ones I have. Today I saw Dragonfish71 and Hubby's pond and stream!!! Gorgeous, I would love to have something like that too.

Definitely don't have the funds to do a fabulous Japanese Koi pond garden though!

Good point about the Dolphins! LOL
 
But it isn't sais you have 2 buy all the koi at once. Every month or so buy one or 2. My dad has a ground pond, Wich I dug for him by hand, it contains 18500 liters Wich is 4111 American gallons when I convert it.
He only want orange or red koi and goldfish, and i like wtf koi can have such nice colors, we have alot nice goldfish from like 8 inches, 4 koi from like 2 foot.

I'll add some photo's some time
 
African cichlids. I simply don't have room in a 30 gallon tank. But I love them so much. I don't know why. So much I considered having just one in my 30 gallon, no other fish.

Once I get a larger tank I'm hoping to do a malawi setup
 
Just thought of another Tire Track Eel! The reason I can't have it is because it would outgrow my 150 gallon tank :(

I want a zebra pleco, too expensive though

I got one of these but my bristle nose pleco wouldn't let it eat and it died, they are only $79
 
Where in the world did you find one for $79? I want one so bad


Cheapest I have seen is $150

I wish I had anything right now...waiting until Sept. to move into my new place and didn't want to set up my tank until everything settled down. Always wanted to have a Tiger Shovelnose Cat but they get wayy too big for a 55gal. however......

The good thing is we found a place with a cement slab basement now that means I can go out and get a 125+gal tank and not worry about it breaking through the floor! maybe I can live out my dream of owning a Tiger Shovelnose!
