Hey Everybody!
Well it's about the time and my parents have decided for us to move. I currently have a 72 gallon bowfront tank. Well the new house I have saw, which is a very good chance we will get it , closing september 1st we have thought of what to do with tanks furniture and so on. Well I figured I would bring over a 90 gallon tank so my reef lights and sump would fit, however my parents said I could get a large tank...Large? She said you can get a very big tank for the downstairs apartment for my grandmother who will be leaving thier. She is approaching 90 years old, so we try to make things easier for her, like in this house she will not need to use staircases anymore with the help of a walk in on her floor. My mom also notice she really enjoys looking at my tank and thinks it would be best for her too....and besides she knows I really like fish tanks. This tank is defiantly going to big!
Well sorry for the long story just wanted to give the story behind this but my questions are:
Is it true that the bigger the tank, the easier it is to keep up with it? (Ignoring bills, just saying on the water chemistry part)
What are the hardiest sharks, rays and fish that coexist with eachother in your tanks. (I'm not a noob lol, most likely based on size it will come down to the coral cat shark, banded cat shark, cortez sting rays, yellow rays, panther groupers) Also I know the dimensions of the tank will be helpful, but don't have the exact info yet, so just posting for know hardier species that seem to coexist well together. (250 - 500 gallons tank.
I guess you could say this is my more detailed research also I say Possible because the only request of my parents was that it seems that it was too much work maintaining water chemistry with a 72 gallon so they request for it to be a huge freshwater tank. I think they think it was hard mainly because they saw me do large water changes weekly, me moving rocks a lot, aiptasi anemones and other human errors. This is the very reason why I posted the first question, and now I will head to the freshwater section and post a similair topic as a back up.
Thanks Everybody for you replies, and no I'm not doing a noob move and jumping into this the second I get this info, I will continue doing further research through the web and defiantly on mfk!!
