Help me pick out a new fish.

DR P,(once again, thanks)
I do reaserch, but I find different answers all over the place.
Some places said that I could keep a dwarf flame angel in 30 gl or larger tank, some places say 50 gallons min for that fish.
So, How am i to know which place has "true" info?
That is why I started this thread.

I would leave your tank alone. It looks like it is perfect...

Scott Michael's minimum tank requirements for an angelfish is either 20 or 30 gallons... I think it's actually 20 gallons. I have read that they don't need a ton of swimming room; they are more dependent on rocks to hide in.

Phil, the purple firefish would be great in your tank. Plus, since there is nothing to pick on it, it should stay out in your tank most of the day. Mine stays in the front center almost all the time (but within a quick swimming distance to his hideyhole.)

I would just add more corals or let the ones you have grow out. If you want more fish go for purple firefish, some neon gobies, different types of clown gobies. Something like that. I think your center piece fish are the clowns, you don't need an angel. Just add some corals to get the colors you want. Acans, micros, ect. I have a 15 gallon nano with 8 fish but when you look in you see 2 .But in a reef tank its about the corals rather then the fish. Looking good tho.

How about some small schooling cardinal fish to swim out in the open?

- What about a firefish, like a helfrichi or a purple firefish? Small, docile, non-competitive, very pretty.

I second this. My most beautiful, colorful & active fish are the firefish. You can't go wrong with them.

 

[rookie07]

what are those two fish?
Top is a purple firefish?, whats the second one?
I want I want I want(now im stomping me feet and swinging my arms.

bottom pic is a Helfrichi firefish. They are pretty pricey - will run you upwards of $160.

Here is a pic of my purple firefish:

And here is a pic of my old yellow assessor (another of the fish I recommended):

And Thunder, Mike's fat algae blenny (another fish I suggested for you):

My research showed Pistol Shrimp are not good with Sexy Shrimp.

How about Clown Gobies?

I think you could go with a coral beauty. Very colorful and very friendly. Would look great in your tank. But I must say the purple fire fish looks awsome. Get both only kidding I would only add one more fish. good luck

rookie, got a kick out of your wording on the jewish kid on xmas.

The 34 gl Solana, is Solana the brand name? Where can I find these tanks.

 

[vangoghfish]

is the Solana a tank brand name? If so, where can I find one? Yes, both nice looking tank, and clean setup currently, nice mix.

 

[rookie07]

solana is tank name, made by current.
Just google solana tank.
Keep in mind. I have so many pumps running out of the back that I lost the RO/DI resovior, so make sure that isnt a deciding factor.
