hypthetical stock list 55g

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
seems like there are too many fish in general on that list. just too much.
 
Alright how does this sound?

4 Blue/Green Chomis

2 Firefish

1 Yellow Head Sleeper Goby

1 Jawfish

2 Neon Gobies

Flasher Wrasse pair

3 Zebra Dart

is that still over stocked? i really have no concept of how big a 55 i know technically how big is it but i have no clue how many fish that can hold :flamed:

well that doesn't sound as bad. 55's aren't really the best tanks for having a lot of fish. the 12 inch depth that they have ruins them in my opinion. just an opinion though. it does seem like quite a lot of fish for the tank size, but it could work. don't expect 100% survival rate for a while though.

:iagree:


it sounds a little heavy, but f you add them slow and have good filtration i can see that working
BUT
i wouldn't have the firefish AND bar gobies AND sleeper AND jawfish
i would cut out either the bar gobies and/or sleeper
 
alright realized now thin 55s are... and i think im going to go with something bigger ( a 36"x24"x18") would be nice but would have to get it custom made....


so too many gobies for one tank? i could drop the firefish and jawfish and keep darts and sleepers (i really want both of these fish)

it would be a 65wide. I actually looked at one for myself. decided to go with just a 40 breeder instead as the house for my lionfish.
 
awsome thanks for the link jimmy the other site i checked out was going to charge me 675$ for the same tank... i thought it was a little rediculus, but its 275 on this one! :D

yeah. it's a great tank, but you would need to find out about picking it up. you have to plan to get it. you could pay to ship it, but it would prolly cost a fortune. I am gonna buy a 40 breeder from them though, because it's only a 2 hour drive for me to go pick it up for free.

i wouldn't get it shipped to canada.. im at Bishops university now and to get home i could pass thru the states so i could pick it up somewhere in maine if my father or someone i know has a PO Box they would let me use :drool: i hope i get my hands on this tank:drool:
 
if you go to like big als or heck even like petmsart/co.com im sure they have 65 gallon tanks.. they are a fairly standard size


anyways

fine do the opposite of what i say!
jk.. i'm just more a fan of the jaws and fires.. flip flopping it is no problem.. but be ready to move some sand around if you're getting a pair of those gobies, i just had to rescape my 29 from my little bulldozer
