very cool looking tank where did u get all of your rock like to have some for my tank, just starting.

[crazylazy73703]

ebay and from a few friends and shit

Nice tank, crazy, that looks exactly like my tank. Same size and same fish. Except i have a blue spot puffer and also, a yellow box fish. I think my tank is over stocked though, actually i know it is. i have a 2inch humu 2 inch clown trigger, one clown fish, yellow box, dogface puffer and blue spot puffer and snowflake eel. ive had them in the tank for about 2 months and swimming around fine. But i know i need to get a bigger tank or another to put half of them in there. What do you suggest.

[crazylazy73703]

thats nuts, the next fish i want is a long horn cow fish, well I'm sure my tank is over stocked as well but as long as you have plenty of rock for each fish to have its own "home" and they seam to be getting along then you should be okay, but with lots of fish comes lots of waste, keep up on your water changes (maybe even do them every 2 or 3 weeks instead of monthly) and use a good protein skimmer, i use the CPR Bak-Pak 2 and I have no problems, levels are always 0 and everyone gets along

here is a 72 gal Bowfront Aquarium for a really good price if you happen to be close to Oklahoma, has an over flow and a canopy, looks pretty nice

is the trigger agressive to the other mates in the tank?

[Elton4ever21]

How long did it take for the sand to settle down? I just bought the substance today and added to my tank. Am i suppose to have the filter turned off? Let me know thanks! What about the heater? Do i leave that on?

[izthedaddykid]

how much was the whhite spotted one

[iwimp1994]

@brabban2 im sure he will upgrade the tank or get rid of the fish.

[SilentAssailant]

Are you using any external filter, sump, refugium, or anything like that? Aside from what everyone says you really don't need any of that stuff, it's just helpful if you happen to have it which is why I ask. I have a 29 gallon nanoreef with only 40lbs live rock, 40lbs live sand, 100W heater, bakpak skimmer, 130W coralife PC, and ofcourse my fish, inverts , & coral. Everything has been 100% fine for half a year running like that with zero deaths/issues. Makes you wonder...

[SilentAssailant]

Umm, that was pretty harsh dude. I'm sure he's aware of that. And since they are still young i'm sure he;s planning to upgrade his tank to a bigger one for them eventually.

[runimuk22]

I have the same tank but i don't think my euro style stand will hold a decent size sump and was wondering what kind of stand do you have and what kind of filter/ sump are you running.

[Manuelluismedina]

right now is fine if the triggers get along but there's always bigger tanks to upgrade, it's not like he's going to keep them in that tank for life

[lougotzzzz]

Seriously...two triggers in a 46 gallon tank? Listen to brabban2

[brabban2]

you should give up marine keeping what the hell are you thinking the clown grows up to 45cm alone nice tank for couple of butterflys or similar but hell no triggers
