Who Gives A Fish Forums

Good point. If you're planning to add more fish or plants down the line, go with the Oase. The extra media space is worth it.

Another option is the Eheim Classic. It's not as fancy, but it's bulletproof and whisper-quiet. I've had one running for five years with no problems. Just gotta clean the impeller every few months.

The Fluval 407 is a good choice, but if you're looking for something with more customization, check out the Oase Biomaster Thermo. It's got a built-in heater, which saves space, and the pre-filter is super easy to clean. I've had mine running for two years with zero issues.


I second the Oase ...

I've heard of people using algae as a resting spot for seahorses, maybe something like caulerpa? Not super familiar with them myself, but it might be worth looking into.

so can i keep one of them. also, i've got my eye on a coflake beauty and a hi fin clown goby - would that be too many fish for my 140L tank, considering i already have 2 clown fish and 1 dart fish.

Side note, you might want to consider upping the flow in your tank, or look into a red slime remover to help clear out that cyano bacteria.

I'd be willing to spend a pretty penny on a yellow fungia, but it really depends on the quality and size of the coral. What's your budget looking like for this purchase?

It looks content.

The first one is indeed a Hollywood Stunner Chalice. I'm not too familiar with Favia, but I think the second one is just a regular type of Favia - not sure of the exact ID though. As for the third, I believe it's a Turbinaria reniformis, not LA Lakers Scroll Coral - that's a pretty cool coral, by ...

looks alright to me, pics are a bit tough to gauge tho. can't see any exo which is a plus. got the green eyes and purple base goin on, you're lookin good.
