What is up everyone! Just getting into the saltwater game. I have a Fluval EVO 13.5 tank that I plan to keep a mantis shrimp in with 15lbs of live rock from KP Aquatics! I find all the videos of these little creatures so fascinating! Excited for what’s to come!

Welcome to the community! Mantis shrimp are pretty fun to watch 😁 I hope you'll share some photos/videos once you get him going in your build thread (if you create one)!

HOW IMPORTANT ARE FISH TO MAKING A REEF TANK FEEL COMPLETE?

  • Essential! A reef needs fish movement and personality

    Votes: 28 65.1%

  • Very important, but one or two fish may be enough

    Votes: 5 11.6%

  • Optional... a coral-only reef can feel completely finished

    Votes: 2 4.7%

  • I actually prefer a coral-and-invertebrate-only system

    Votes: 0 0.0%

  • It depends on the tank’s size, style, or purpose

    Votes: 6 14.0%

  • I’ve kept a fishless reef (details in the comments)

    Votes: 1 2.3%

  • Well...it's complicated... (answer in the comments)
