choosing unusual fish for a 130-litre fish-only tank

Post by felixon »

Hi,

I'm a marine fish keeping newbie, but I'm hooked. I've got a 130 litre tank up and running as a reef aquarium, but I'm itching to upgrade. I don't want to get rid of this one, though - I'm thinking of converting it into a fish only tank.

I've always been drawn to lion fish, triggers, and puffers - do you think any of these would be a good fit for a tank this size? I'd love to hear your suggestions - I've really appreciated the advice I've gotten so far, and I'm grateful to everyone who's contributed.

Thanks in advance for your help!

For a 130 litre tank, dwarf Lionfish could be a good fit. Some of the smaller eels, such as the snowflake, are also worth considering. While triggers and puffers generally require more space, the valentini puffer is an exception.
