Species specific tank. Thoughts to showcase one fish or small school.

[douglasbnyhof]

Good day everyone. I have this old Biocube- 32 gallon just sitting around collecting dust. It has an upgraded Kessil A80 tuna blue for light. I’ve been Thinking about a species spec tank with just one fish or small school.

I was thinking about toadfish, frogfish or dwarf lionfish.

Maybe a clownfish school. Or damsel school. But that’s kinda boring lol.

I like the toad or frog fish idea! always wanted to do the same.

I think that’s too small for a dwarf lion. My girl is super active and enjoys swimming in open water! The fish I’ve recently fell in love with that school are dart gobies! I have a small school in my 70 and they are super active, peaceful and fun!

Too small for a lion or toad fish, but perfect for an angler.

So you want a frog fish; I call them anglers

I've kept a few, my first going back 25 years. These are very difficult fish to keep and I am still very frustrated as to the success in keeping these guys long term. I do have some information I would like to share for those interested. Be forewarned, they are not for everyone and do take...

I've always thought about doing a seahorse tank with mangrove tree in a small cube.
