150 Gal Fish Additions..

Nanoreefbro · 03-06-2007, 12:14 PM

Hi everyone.. I am in the middle of upgrading to a 150 Gal tank and switching fish from my 110 and 50 gal.. Since my 150 is going to be my show tank I wanted to see which fish would be best for it..Currently I have in my 110
1 Yellow Tang
1 Purple Tang
1 Naso Tang
3 Ocellaris Clowns
1 Six-Line Wrasse
1 Blue Spotted Jawfish
1 pair of Harlequin Shrimp

For my 50 Gal I have
2 Black and White Ocellaris
1 Mystery Wrasse
1 Neon Goby
1 Scopas Tang (temporary)
1 Yellow Watchman Goby

So I'm looking at the best combination right now.. I know I'm going to sell my Blue Spotted Jawfish, and maybe my Purple Tang.. But I'm not sure yet.. J

Let's hear about your filtration to start,.. Also do you intend this to be a Reef tank?

Your asking which fish you should sell back right? I think the Purple tang is a good start,.. they are aggressive often times, and the Yellow and purple might eventually get into it, the Scoapas could be a problem too,.. often times Tangs of simaler body shapes don't do well together.

BUT your selling the coolest fish you have! I would definitally keep the jawfish, why do you want to get rid of him?

This will be a reef tank.. As far as filtration I have a 37 gal sump and I'm using a Octopus Recirc Skimmer NW-200.. I'm selling the Jawfish because he digs too much.. While he was in my 110 he covered my Blue Ricordeas..

Move the rics and keep the bluespot! Seriously, they are really neat fish. I'm saying that and I'm a ric junkie...
Good advice so far on the tangs, BTW.

I'll have to take some when I get home.. Didnt think of a price yet..

saltwaterfarm · 03-06-2007, 12:56 PM

Oh... I'm sorry about the rics. There are tons of people here who want bluespots... If you feel like you have to get rid of him, someone will make him a good home.

Yeah I hope to find him a good home.. Same with the Purple Tang..
