i dont think theirs much you can keep with a bt, they grow to be 6ft 100 pounds, i would just keep a pair of them. if you still want tankmates then you might want a second opinion.

yep regular parlimeter
hmmmm, dunno about LOTS of live rock, just dont obstruct swimming space and you'll be good.
found this pic at seaclear.com too plain for mine and your liking, just an idea of a black tip tank
