So I have been having a problem with conflicting information on the coral beauty. My LFS is getting some in this week, and I would love to get one....I just want to make sure that if I do get one, he will do well in my tank.
Some things that I have read says a 30 gal is min tank size and other things that say 55 gal is the min. My tank is a 47 gal. The other thing is that my tank is tall...not wide, do they need more room to swim?
I have also been reading some conflicting info on reef compatibility. I don't really have anything as far as coral right now, but I am hoping that once I get my lights upgraded to get some corals.
My current tank residents are 2 firefish, 1 maroon clown, 2 emerald crabs, 2 peppermint shrimp, 1 skunk shrimp, and various hermits (red leg, blue leg, scarlet).
Any advice/suggestions are very appreciated!
