advice for a 180l setup

Post by Kolada »

Just got my new 180l tank up and running with a few inhabitants already - 2 young percula clowns, a fire fish, a coflake beauty and a skunk shrimp. Still letting it mature a bit before adding more but I'm keen to hear suggestions - just a heads up, I'll be getting coflake in the future so it's gotta be reef safe.

My mum's obsessed with yellow tangs, but I'm more about those tiny yellow watchman gobies. What do you reckon? The more unusual, the better.

I'm spoilt for choice but I think I'd have to go with a flasher or fairy wrasse.

Honestly, I think you should just add one more fish, and that would be a flasher wrasse, it's a great choice and will add some nice movement to your tank.

I'd say take some time to check out your local fish stores, see what really stands out to you. Just make sure to ask the staff if it's reef safe, most Lionfish aren't, but you'd be surprised what some places try to pass off as safe. Even if you're unsure, just throw a question up on here and we can give you a second opinion. Also, don't forget to check the marine species list on the main menu page, it's a great resource.
