2.50 stocking suggestions

[BIGgourami]

I thought of doing something like this to a 12x7x7.. But cant find any cheap corals..or anything worth to put in it...

any fish store that sells corals should sell coral frags (small peices of coral) that either start growing in their own tanks or then fragged themselves for sale

mushrooms, zooanthids, polyps, duncans, and any soft coral you feel comfortable trimming could all be kept in a 2.5 gallon tank


i put some stuff in a cart at liveaquaria.com, this is what i selected:

1 polyp of green duncan coral
1 polyp of aussie red blastomussa
1 frag of neon green palau nephthea

and
red eviota goby (might remove pending some fish buying opportunities)
3 sexy shrimp (same)
a couple of nassarius snails
and a rock of maiden's hair algea also

[Will Hayward]

Nice sponge. I'd move it into the flow and towards the light. Not sure what that sp. of algae is galled, but I've seen it before.

Nice sponge, they hard to keep? might get one for my 90 gallon.

Strong lights, good flow, lots of live plankton.
