Aquarium Advice FINatic
The bf is taking over the salt water tank at his work and planning to switch over to fresh planted. Fun right?! We're in the planning stage. Finding homes for the tang, clown fish, and starfish at our favorite mom and pop lfs. The tank has a big sump and a cheap made in China canister filter.
We are trying to decide to what to put in the tank so that we can plan accordingly. One side of the tank is facing the cat boarders and the other faces the lobby so we are thinking something colorful and not too shy but also interesting and fun to watch for the human and feline clients alike.
In a perfect world I would like this:
1. A 2 year old black marbled angel fish (he is a jerk and is getting picked on in our home tank by the veiled pair he shares a 55 with) so he/she is a must for this new 120.
2. 6 or so basmati rainbows
3. 6 clown loaches (never had clowns but really love to give some a decent home)
4. Hatchets
Aquaadvisor had a heart attack when I input all this. So I realize this will probably not work. I'm willing to take out the hatchets but they don't make much of a difference. The clowns are the bio load kings. First, is 120 planted with sand substrate a decent home for clowns? Or should I forget them all together?
