    20 gallon tank set up for newbie

    What anemones would work in that tank? I saw a dwarf carpet anemone at the store that said it only got 6" in size.:rollingey

    20 gallon tank set up for newbie

    oh, I'm not looking for 'basslets, damsels and jawfish' I'm wondering if any of those would work well in the system. 2 clownies and 2-3 small companions.

    lion compatability

    I'm not talking about the volitans. I would think that the clown and mandarin gobi would be too large for the dwarf lions.

    lion compatability

    I am going to begin a 40 gal tank in a couple of months. Could I put a zebra lionfish and a fuzzy lionfish in the tank?

    Best places online to buy a tank?

    I concur with an earlier post: w/ some patients Craig's List can be a great resource for affordable tanks. I bought a 30 gal long for $40 and 55 gal, w/full set up, for $150.

    A friend of mine has a 14 gal biocube and it's his first SW tank. He loves it. If I remember right he has a damsel, some starfish and snails.

    New to SW: suggestions for a 20 gal tank

    Funny, we had a similar phrase in the Coast Guard but the order was different: The solution to pollution is dilution. Are there any sort of coral or anemone that would work after the tank is established?
