Fishy suggestions

[pamelahaley]

I'm picking up a 10 gal from another member on Wednesday. I really want a yellow clown goby but, I need one more good tiny tank mate for him.

1. Does anyone here have one of these they don't want?
2. What's a tank good mate for him?

3... I may consider picking up a pair of clown fry.

Firefish, Hi-fin red banded gobi, Yasha hase

Well, apparently the former Firefish had jumped out. I was concerned for those mid level swimmers. I've heard Gobis of different species don't do well together but, I could try a pair.

Green banded goby. They are small, friendly and gorgeous.

Thank you!

I had started considering just using that tank for a potential peacock mantis as well. (still haven't found the one) but, it's probably better off in my 24 gallon. I think if I find one, I'll use it to solve my damsel problem then... figure out what (real) fish I can put in my 24 after I move it to the 10.

Then I'm still getting a 54 corner. :yay:

Choices... choices...

Agreed... unfortunately, I have been looking for one for several months for my daughter's nano, and have come up dry. A couple of sponsors have looked and the fish isn't on their wholesale lists as available, but I'm still looking.

Nope not at all some corals like Zoas can use just light. But rods does make a coral food that's like 5 microns. N if u put some blue legs n there they will eat whatever fails to b eaten by corals

Acroholic Mesh top will take care of this.

Well, if I never found one, I was starting to consider ordering one of those guys from F&S. It's pretty enough to count Let me get this 10 gal set up tonight and we'll talk.
