Hey Everyone,
Ive had 150 gallon saltwater tank for about year or 2 now and decided its time roc all it quits. I just don't have the time to commit to it anymore and lossing my favorite fish that cost $200 finally drove me to my breaking point. So Im debating on ending it all together or go back to freshwater which is what this tank was originally suppose to before. Its a 48x24x30 (LxWxH) tank. With corner overflow as well as a sump. Sump would have to be changed to freshwater set up, but it is equipped with filter sock as well as k1 moving bed filter as well as high turnover rate. So most likely I would take out the skimmer and put some kind of filter pads before the water rushes thru the moving bed filter. So many options lol. So basically I just want some ideas on to what to stock this tank personally what drew me originally to get a big tank was to have a stingray but I dropped the ball in not purchasing a 180. I've been told that I can possibly stick out with a pair of hystrix rays for a while or a male hystrix or male marble ray for life. Not really entirely sure what to do, I feel that water changes would be a lot easier for me to keep up since I would just have to hook it up to the sink instead of with saltwater mixing and moving around a giant garbage pale of water.
LONG STORY SHORT! This tank is in my living room, want it too look nice but would like some exotic fish in it like a ray or something interesting. Thanks appreciate it, or any other ideas that would make the tank look nice.
