ttt

how fast would the following fish grow:

porcupine puffer
niger trigger
snowflake eel
lunare wrasse
maroon clown
domino + other various nice-sized damsels

thanks

 

[BigO6687]

so i found out the growth rate of the three main fish i want

niger trigger: when well fed 1" every 3 months
snowflake: 1/2" a month
porc. puffer: mixed results but apparently slow

if you guys could find the growth rate of the others that would be great thanks

i wouldnt do damsels and maroon clowns in a 37 when your other fish in the tank are more important to you, they are terrors even at smaller sizes, and when your fish you really want are smaller you want to minimize aggro tankmates.

you could start with alot bigger of a snowflake than 5 inches, i would actually recommend it or it would get picked on bad by 5" puffer and 5" trigger.

 

[BigO6687]

yeah the damsels and clown aren't until i get the 125
then theyre going in first so they can find hiding places and establish territories

i can get an eel about 8-10 inches and skinny, a certain niger trigger that had a really good personality at the store and that ones a good 5 inches with tail/streamers, and porc. puffer, i havent really seen one i liked

the tank will probably be set up tonight with sand, salt, etc.
